?>

all i want this to do is have a place for a link and have a place that says "enter the last word on page 3" with a place for the anwser and a submit button.

i think thats whats already there but i dont know what to do with it to make it work with my site. i have learnd the basics of html , but with that you can do something in it and see it in the browser and know about where you went wrong . php is alot more complicated for me to understand.
