Sorry about all the code, (we need to get a scrolling code box lol), what happens is whenever i try to send the form it goes straight to the error page. Any thoughts?

Thanks again

The reason I think is because you have put simply the page that is allowed to arrive (contact.php).

Change $allowedReferer = array($returnURL, 'http://www.craigmoran.co.uk/');

to

$allowedReferer = array( 'http://www.craigmoran.co.uk/');

and make sure that you are viewing http://www.craigmoran.co.uk/contact.php when you fill in the form.

Also, what errors are you gettinG?
