Contact Form Php5 Help..

Hi, I've made several websites with Swish and used the php scripts i've grabbed from the net for the contact forms, but now my main server has updated to php5 and the contact form on that website doesn't work. Can anyone give me some advice? I do not really know php, have just muddled through somehow.

Here's the original script that works on php4 server:


<?
if ($send=="yes") {
$to = "myemail";
$subject = "$subjectVar";
$body .= "$msgVar";
$from = "$nameVar";
$tfrom = "From: <$emailVar>";
mail($to,$subjectVar,$msgVar,$tfrom);
}
echo "&errormessage=Email has been sent&";
?>



and here's my attempt at updating it to php5:
<?
if ($send=="yes") {
$to = "myemail";
$subject = "$_POST['subjectVar']";
$body .= "$_POST['msgVar']";
$from = "$_POST['nameVar']";
$tfrom = "From: <$_POST['emailVar']>";
mail($to,$_POST['subjectVar'],$_POST['msgVar'],$tfrom);
}
echo "&errormessage=Email has been sent&";
?>


any help greatly apprecated!

Most likely you need to change $send to $_POST['send'] and try changing the <? to <?php
