$website = $_POST['website'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

if(empty($name) OR empty($message))
{
echo "

<script language='javascript'>

alert('You need to fill out both of the form fields...');

</script>

might want to change copyrite at bottom

Make a file called content.txt and chmod to 777

Content.php

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css"> body { background-color: #fffffff; font-family: verdana; font-size: 10px; color: #000000; } </style>

</head>
<body>
<left>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="20">
<?php include('content.txt'); ?>
</left>
</body>
</html>

thats it.
