syntax error

I must admit I'm rusty after all these years.
Getting an error I can't see...
syntax error, unexpected '<' on line 8

Code:

<?php
$file_name = $_POST["file_name"];
$video_name = $_POST["video_name"];

if(isset($_POST['video_name'])){


<html>
<head>
<title><?php echo $video_name ?></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="videos/HD/swfobject.js"></script>
</head>
<body style="background-color: #000000; text-align:center; margin: auto">

<img style="margin-top: 10px" src="img/dark_alley.jpg">

<div style="margin: 0px auto; cursor:pointer; text-align:center; height: 260px">

<p id="player" style="text-indent: 0px; text-align: center"><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" target="_blank"> 
      <u>You must upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to see this video</u></a></p>
      
<script type="text/javascript">var so = new SWFObject('videos/HD/player.swf','mpl','320','260','9.0.115');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','false');
so.addParam('flashvars','&file=/videos/mp4/<?php echo $file_name ?>&backcolor=000000&frontcolor=C0C0C0&lightcolor=CC0000&screencolor=000000&controlbar=bottom&stretching=none&autostart=true&link=http://buskeralley.com/&linktarget=_self&bufferlength=2');
so.write('player');</script>

</div>
</body>
</html>

}
else{

What did I forget over the years?
Thx

I think you need php closing tag

PHP Code:


			
?>
<html>

Then php opening tag at the bottom after </html>

Oh that's right...I have to start and stop the php as the page progresses.
Thanks...Works a charm
