Default getting error when put recapatcha in to script! need help

I have a script input that allows you to add to the site guest book, which connects and sends data to the MYSQL data-base. The data base and everything else works fine, if i dont add the reCapatch script everything works perfectly... but then when i add reCapatch i pull out a 500 error, and for the life of me cant figure out why. Could you guys take a look and see if you can spot the problem! i am guessing its not reCapatcha causing the problem but something in my custom code for the data thanks

here is my script:

PHP Code:
<?php
require_once('location/recaptchalib.php');
  
$privatekey "my private key";
  
$resp recaptcha_check_answer ($privatekey,
                                
$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"],
                                
$_POST["recaptcha_challenge_field"],
                                
$_POST["recaptcha_response_field"]);

  if (!
$resp->is_valid) {
    
// What happens when the CAPTCHA was entered incorrectly
    
die ("The reCAPTCHA wasn't entered correctly. Go back and try it again." .
         
"(reCAPTCHA said: " $resp->error ")");
  } else {

    
// Your code here to handle a successful verification
$dbservertype='mysql';
$servername='sname';
// username and password to log onto db server
$dbusername='uname';
$dbpassword='dbpass';
// name of database
$dbname='dbname';

////////////////////////////////////////
////// DONOT EDIT BELOW  /////////
///////////////////////////////////////
connecttodb($servername,$dbname,$dbusername,$dbpassword);
function 
connecttodb($servername,$dbname,$dbuser,$dbpassword){
global 
$link;
$link=mysql_connect ("$servername","$dbuser","$dbpassword");
if(!
$link){die("Could not connect to MySQL");}
mysql_select_db("$dbname",$link) or die ("could not open db".mysql_error());
}


$email=$_POST['email'];
$name=$_POST['name'];
$country=$_POST['country'];
$dtl=$_POST['dtl'];


$status "OK"// setting the flag for form validation
$msg="";        // error message string is blank
// now let us check email address
if (!stristr($email,"@") OR !stristr($email,".")) {
$msg="<center>Your email address is not correct</center><BR>";
$status="NOT OK";
}
// Now let us check if name is entered or not 
if(strlen($name) < ){  // if name is less than two char length
$msg .="<center>Please enter your name</center><BR>";
$status="NOT OK";
}
if(
$status<>"OK"){ // if form validation is not passed
echo "<BR><BR>";
echo 
$msg"<br><center><input type='button' value='Retry' onClick='history.go(-1)'></center><br><br><br>";
}else{
$tm=time(); // reading the time of entry
// adding data to mysql database
//first thing is to escape single quotes!
$dtl str_replace("'","\'",$dtl);
//now process
$rt=mysql_query("insert into guest_book(name,email,country,tm,dtl) values('$name','$email','$country','$tm','$dtl')");
echo 
mysql_error();
echo 
"Thank you for your comment! You will automaticly be redirected...";
//send e mail to self with the users e mail address for a thank you message!
