no now i get this message

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in C:\XITAMI\webpages\action2.php on line 5

I fixed it



<?php

$name2= $_POST['fullname'];

if($_POST['fullname']=='Roman')

echo "Hi Roman";

if($_POST['fullname']=='Larisa')

echo "Hi Larisa";

if($_POST['fullname']=='Mark')

echo "Hi Mark";

if($_POST['fullname']!='Mark'and $_POST['fullname']!='Roman' and $_POST['fullname']!='Larisa')

echo "hi $name2 you are not reconized";



If(isset($_POST['submit']))

$conn=mysql_connect("localhost","root");

mysql_select_db("mydb");

$query=mysql_query("insert into people (users) values ('$name2')");

?>

Tiksiboy, if you just wrap PHP tags around your code, the indenting and coloring will be handled for you automatically. Just for future reference. The tags should be the letters PHP wrapped in square brackets. As in HTML, the second tag should be /PHP in square brackets.
