Novice php coder - HMTL formatting within PHP question

[garp2100]

Hello everyone! first post here, I"m running a very simple php form from a site and I was wondering if somebody could help me figure out the html formatting in order to add some line breaks and bold some text areas.

 

<?php

$mailto = 'mail@mail.com' ;

$subject = "mail@mail.com" ;

$formurl = "http://www.site.com" ;
$errorurl = "http://www.site.com/error.htm" ;
$thankyouurl = "http://www.site.com/thankyou.htm" ;

$uself = 0;

$headersep = (!isset( $uself ) || ($uself == 0)) ? "\r\n" : "\n" ;
$name = $_POST['name'] ;
$email = $_POST['email'] ;
$comments = $_POST['comments'] ;
$address = $_POST['address'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$state = $_POST['state'];
$zip = $_POST['zip'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$sex = $_POST['sex'];
$dob = $_POST['dob'];
$cap_name = $_POST['cap_name'];
$cap_phone = $_POST['cap_phone'];
$wit_name = $_POST['wit_name'];
$wit_phone = $_POST['wit_phone'];
$fishing_club = $_POST['fishing_club'];
$location = $_POST['location'];
$county = $_POST['county'];
$species = $_POST['species'];
$species2 = $_POST['species2'];
$species3 = $_POST['species3'];
$species4 = $_POST['species4'];
$species5 = $_POST['species5'];
$catch_date = $_POST['catch_date'];
$catch_date2 = $_POST['catch_date2'];
$catch_date3 = $_POST['catch_date3'];
$catch_date4 = $_POST['catch_date4'];
$catch_date5 = $_POST['catch_date5'];
$length = $_POST['length'];
$length2 = $_POST['length2'];
$length3 = $_POST['length3'];
$length4 = $_POST['length4'];
$length5 = $_POST['length5'];
$amount = $_POST['amount'];
$amount2 = $_POST['amount2'];
$amount3 = $_POST['amount3'];
$amount4 = $_POST['amount4'];
$amount5 = $_POST['amount5'];
$division = $_POST['division'];
$division2 = $_POST['division2'];
$division3 = $_POST['division3'];
$division4 = $_POST['division4'];
$division5 = $_POST['division5'];
$line_test = $_POST['line_test'];
$line_test2 = $_POST['line_test2'];
$line_test3 = $_POST['line_test3'];
$line_test4 = $_POST['line_test4'];

$mono_braid2 = $_POST['mono_braid2'];
$mono_braid3 = $_POST['mono_braid3'];
$mono_braid4 = $_POST['mono_braid4'];
$mono_braid5 = $_POST['mono_braid5'];
$http_referrer = getenv( "HTTP_REFERER" );

if (!isset($_POST['email'])) {
header( "Location: $formurl" );
exit ;
}
if (empty($name) || empty($email)) {
   header( "Location: $errorurl" );
   exit ;
}
if ( ereg( "[\r\n]", $name ) || ereg( "[\r\n]", $email ) ) {
header( "Location: $errorurl" );
exit ;
}

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$comments = stripslashes( $comments );
}

$messageproper =

mail($mailto, $subject, $messageproper,

There you go. Wrap it up in some HTML and call it a day. You really did not need all that messy concatenation.
