[SOLVED] please can anyone see what is wrong with this

[jeppers]

i have been looking at this code for about an hour, when i load it up nothing shows up on the screen. i am sure it is simple but as you know he longer you look the hard it gets to spot the error..

 

<?php //reg.php

//address error handling
ini_set ('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting (E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

//set the page title 
ini_set ('TITLE', 'register');

//basic html formatting 
print '<div id="leftcontent">
<h1>Registration Form</h1>
<p>Register so that you can take advantage of this, that and other things.</p>';

//check if the form has been submitted
if (isset ($_POST['submit'])) {

$problem = FALSE; // no problems so far

//check each value 
if (empty ($_POST['username')) {
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Please enter your username</p>';
}

if(empty ($_POST['first_name'])) {
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Plase enter your First Name</P>';
}

if (empty ($_POST['last_name'])) {
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Please enter your Last Name</p>';
}

if (empty ($_POST['email'])) {
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Please enter your email</p>';
}

if (empty($_POST['password1'])) {
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Please enter your Password</p>';
}

if ($_POST['password1'] != $_POST['password2']){
	$problem = TRUE;
	print '<p>Your password did not match your confirmed password!</p>';
}

if (!$problem) { // if there weren't any probles...

	print '<p>You are now registered!<br />Okey, you are not really registerd but...</p>';

}else { // forgoten field.

	print '<p>Please try again!</p>';

}
}//end of handle for if 


//Display the form 
print '<form action="register.php" method="post"><p>';
print 'Username:<input type="text" name="username" size="20" value="' . $_POST['username'] . '"/><br />'; 
print 'First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name" size="20" value="' . $_POST['first_name'] . '"/><br />';
print 'Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name" size="20" value="' . $_POST['last_name'] . '"/><br />';
print 'Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" size="20" value="' . $_POST['email'] . '"/><br />';
print 'Password: <input type="password" name="password1" size="20" /><br />';
print 'Confirm Password: <input type="password" name="password2" size="20" /><br />';
<input value="submit" name="submit" value="Register!" /></p>
</form>

//complete the html formatting stuff.
print '</div>';

include ('templates/footer.php'); // need the footer
?>

This is incorrect....

 

//set the page title 
ini_set ('TITLE', 'register');

 

Im not sure what your trying to do, but ini_set is made for setting php configuration options. Maybe you meant...

 

define('TITLE','register');

 

which defines a constant. Other than that, the only thing I can see is a few print statements missing. ie;

 

<input value="submit" name="submit" value="Register!" /></p>
</form>

 

should be...

 

print '<input value="submit" name="submit" value="Register!" /></p>';
print '</form>'
