Having problems setting up a guestbook and need some urgent help!!

I have just put together a personal site and am trying to integrate a php guestbook. I obtained a free guestbook, called easyboard and have followed the instructions asto the installation but the html page that I've incorprated the board isn't actually working it displays all the deperate parts that would normally come upon completion of an action.

Problem page to look at

I have posted all the files as txt files so that you can atleast read the coding that I have downloaded and also edited. The links for these are

The main html page
Main HTML txt file

The script pages
Main php script
Admin script txt file
data entry files

If you know what is going wrong please help as I really would like to get this up and running asap

Regards

Dave
