what is exactly the problem?

validation doesnt workout.

put your validation inside your added.php.If there are errors found then die the statement.

example:
(added.php)

//this is your validation in the form,put it here....

if (empty($_POST['name']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter a name';
}



if (empty($_POST['email']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter an e-mail';
}
else if (!eregi("^[_a-z0-9-]+(.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(.[a-z0-9-]+)*(.[a-z]{2,3})$", $_POST['email']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter a valid e-mail address';
}


if (empty($_POST['contact']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter a contact';
}
else if (!is_numeric($_POST['contact']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter a valid contact with a numeric value';
}


if (empty($_POST['person_attend']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter some word';
}
else if (strlen ($_POST['comments']) > 255)
{
$errors[] = 'Your comment is too long, please do not submit more then 255 characters';




if (empty($_POST['comment']))
{
$errors[] = 'Please enter some comment';
}
else if (strlen ($_POST['comment']) > 255)
{
$errors[] = 'Your comment is too long, please do not submit more then 255 characters';


if (count($errors) > 0)
{
die(echo $errors[0];);

}
else
{
//process form


//this is your add query....
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$contact = $_POST['contact'];
$person_attend = $_POST['person_attend'];
$comment = $_POST['comment'];


$query = "INSERT INTO rsvp (id, name, email, contact, person_attend, comment)
VALUES ('', '$name', '$email', '$contact', '$person_attend', '$comment')";

$results = mysql_query($query) or die 
("Could not execute query : $query." . mysql_error());


 {
echo "thanks you ";
}
mysql_close();
}

Opened { and never closed. And next time, Please post your code within code tags.

Edit: Btw, I still think there are many unclosed braces. Get a good editor, match the braces and close it accordingly.

suggest me good editor pls..still cant fix myproblem..learnin.

You can try Notepad++ or devphp. There are many more free ide's available. :)

If that doesn't work, then you have to check the flow by putting your own message in appropriate places(eg, loops and conditions).
