2 errors I caught...

 

retufn preg_replace($headers, '', $string);

 

needs to be 'return'

 

$query = "INSERT INTO submissions (name, email, topic, comments)
   VALUES ('$name', '$email', '$topic', '$comments',)";

 

remove the very last comma after the $comments' just before the closing parenthesis

I corrected the above errors and I am getting a T_String error on line 53. I am not sure what this means...because my code looks pretty damn good.  anyways...any more help out there?

[dannyb785]

did you even check line 53? You have "clean link", not "clean_link"

These look suspect as well

$headers == array(

 

$string = preg_replace($headers, '',string);
