    return true;
}
else
{
    echo "please write a title!";
    return false;
}
}

function mess()

    return true;
}
else
{
    echo "please write a messege!";
    return false;
}
}

if(mess() && title())
{
    mail("[email protected]", $_GET['title'], $_GET['mess']);
    echo "the mail has bees send!";
}

?>
<form action="ftp_mail.php" method="get">
the title:
<input type="text" name="title"  />
the messege:
<input type="text" name="mess" />
<input type="submit" value="send" />
</form>

Use this

if((isset($_GET['mess'])) && ($_GET['mess']!=""))
