[SOLVED] PHP form question-please help!

[chomick]

Hello,

 

I have a PHP contact script located at http://www.chrishomick.com/contact3.php

 

The code is the following:

 

<?php
// Configuration Start \\
$YourEmail = "[email protected]";
// Configuration End \\

if($Submit)
{
if(empty($email) || empty($name) || empty($message))
{
echo "You forgot to enter some required fields. Please go back and try again.";
}
elseif(!eregi('^([._a-z0-9-]+[._a-z0-9-]*)@(([a-z0-9-]+\.)*([a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z]{2,3})?)$', $email))
{
echo "The e-mail is not valid. Please go back and try again.";
}
else
{
$Message = "$name has contacted you using your online form. The message is below.\n\n***************\n$message\n***************\n\nIP of sender: $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]\nE-mail of sender: $email";
$headers = 'From: ' . $email . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: ' . $email . "\r\n" .
'Subject: ' . $subject . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
mail($YourEmail, $Subject, stripslashes($Message), $headers);
echo "The form has been sent and you shall receive a reply shortly.";
}
}
else
{
echo '<form name="cf" method="post" action="">
      <table width="283"  border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" class="content">
        <tr>
          <td width="2%" align="right" valign="middle"><strong><font color="#CCCCCC">*</font></strong></td>
          <td width="27%"><strong>Name:</strong></td>
          <td width="71%"><input name="name" type="text" size="30"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td> </td>
          <td><strong>Phone:</strong></td>
          <td><input name="phone" type="text" size="20"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td align="right" valign="middle"><strong><font color="#CCCCCC">*</font></strong></td>
          <td><strong>Email:</strong></td>
          <td><input name="email" type="text" size="30"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td align="right" valign="middle"><strong><font color="#CCCCCC">*</font></strong></td>
          <td><strong>Subject:</strong></td>
          <td><input name="subject" type="text" size="30"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td align="right" valign="middle"><strong><font color="#CCCCCC">*</font></strong></td>
          <td><strong>Message:</strong></td>
          <td><textarea name="message" cols="28" rows="10"></textarea></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td> </td>
          <td> </td>
          <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send Message"><input type="hidden" name="config" value="0"></td>
        </tr>
      </table>
</form>';
}
?>

 

When you click submit the following two messages appear on the site (which is exactly what I want!)

 

1) You forgot to enter some required fields. Please go back and try again.

 

OR

 

2) The form has been sent and you shall receive a reply shortly.

 

When these messages appear, the form instructions are still there-- 

 

Please use the following form to contact me. I will be in touch with you as soon as possible.

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

 

My question is, how do I remove this text when someone clicks the submit button?

why not just move the text to the same place as the form!
