Ive got a code from a website for a form.

Here is the html code:

<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://hab-house.awardspace.co.uk/style.css"></head>
<body>
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr height="19">
<td width="8" background="http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u114/hab-house/heading_left.gif"></td>
<td background="http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u114/hab-house/heading-2.gif"><font face="arial" size="2" color="#ffffff">News Reporter Apps</font></td>
<td width="8" background="http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u114/hab-house/heading_right.gif"></td>
</tr></table>
<br><br>
<form method="post" action="http://hab-house.awardspace.co.uk/sendmail.php">
What Hotel You Play On:<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="uk"> Habbo.co.uk
<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="sg"> Habbo.com.sg / Habbo.sg
<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="us"> Habbo.com
<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="au"> Habbo.com.au
<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="ca"> Habbo.ca
<br>
<input type="radio" name="1" value="other"> <i>Other</i>
<br><br>
Habbo Name: <input name="2" type="text" /><br /><br>
Email: <input name="3" type="text" /><br /><i>Your email will not be shared with anyone</i><br><br>
Why You Want To Be A News Reporter:<br />
<textarea name="4" rows="15" cols="40">
</textarea><br />
<br>
<input type="submit" align="center" value="submit">
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>

And this is the php code:

<?
$1 = $_REQUEST['1'] ;
$2 = $_REQUEST['2'] ;
$3 = $_REQUEST['3'] ;
$4 = $_REQUEST['4'] ;
mail( "hab-house********.co.uk", "News Reporter Apps",
$message, "From: $3" );
header( "Location: http://www.hab-house.awardspace.co.uk/thanks.html" );
?>

But when i tested the form it said:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /home/www/hab-house.awardspace.co.uk/sendmail.php on line 2

Whats wrong with the code?

+Rep For Help:)

Thanks,
Tom

You might not have superglobals or whatever turned on?

I have been led to believe $_REQUEST only works when they are turned on.

Oh and why have a " " (space) before the ";" ?

Variables cant start with numbers.
