}

?>

Answer 1

change



$ path = "videos/";



to



$path = "videos/";

Answer 2

Maybe get rid of the space between the $ and the variable name in this line?:

$ path = "videos/";

Answer 3

you missed a "dot" (concatenation operator): "\t" $password should be: "\t" . $password EDIT: PS: in php you should only use double quotes if you're going to use variable substitution like this: $form_data = "$firstName\t$lastName\t$email\t$userNam... which is cleaner (and maybe faster) for this line than using concatenation else you should use single quotes.
