Code: [ Select ]
<?php
if(isset($_POST['email'];)) {
  1. <?php
  2. if(isset($_POST['email'];)) {


take out the space and add the ; and that should fix it..

Problem #1 (Not your problem)
PHP Code: [ Select ]
    // validation expected data exists
    if(!isset($_POST['first_name']) ||
        !isset($_POST['last_name']) ||
        !isset($_POST['email']) ||
        !isset($_POST['telephone']) ||
        !isset($_POST['comments'])) {
        died('We are sorry, but there appears to be a problem with the form you submitted.');      
    }
     
    $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; // required
    $last_name = $_POST['last_name']; // required
    $email_from = $_POST['email']; // required
    $telephone = $_POST['telephone']; // not required
    $comments = $_POST['comments']; // required
  1.     // validation expected data exists
  2.     if(!isset($_POST['first_name']) ||
  3.         !isset($_POST['last_name']) ||
  4.         !isset($_POST['email']) ||
  5.         !isset($_POST['telephone']) ||
  6.         !isset($_POST['comments'])) {
  7.         died('We are sorry, but there appears to be a problem with the form you submitted.');      
  8.     }
  9.      
  10.     $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; // required
  11.     $last_name = $_POST['last_name']; // required
  12.     $email_from = $_POST['email']; // required
  13.     $telephone = $_POST['telephone']; // not required
  14.     $comments = $_POST['comments']; // required

In the comment for the telephone number, you are saying that it isn't required and yet you make it required by checking if it exists in the if statement right above it.

As to why you are getting that error, that is beyond me... that error is because of a problem with code written before it... if you are just showing a little bit of a file, post some lines before the line with the error... everything looks fine the way it is right now...

okay may be stupid but just try taking back out the ; and add a space inbetween the = and the " like this.

$email_to = "georanson@gmail-com";

and shouldn't the email be @gmail.com not @gmail-com??? lol

Line 4 is:
PHP Code: [ Select ]
    $email_to ="georanson@gmail-com";

To me it looks like the encoding on your file is messed up which can cause the PHP parser to fail. When I copied and pasted your code directly into nano to do a quick test, I did get the same error as you, but also noticed as I moved my cursor around throughout the file weird characters start showing up which is typical of wrong encodings set on files. What I would recommend to you would be to try and either fix the encoding on the file, or completely start a new file and rewrite everything you see there without copying and pasting so that you do not paste any of the corrupt values over.

Or just use notepad++... it lets you choose your encoding.
