first try at php and mail()

[imarosel]

Never coded in php until today. The following code:

<?php
$to = "recipient@example.com";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";
if (mail($to, $subject, $body)) {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
}
?>

produces the following output:

Message successfully sent!

'); } else { echo("

Message delivery failed...
"); } ?>

I grabbed this code off the web. What am I missing?

I'd check all the doublequotes and singlequotes on this line:

echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");

to make sure they all balance, etc.

thanks for the response. This was a really newbie error. I was playing around and made my index.php an index.html. Stupid stupid error.
