I’m trying to hide a content of a page using PHP but always get an error
this is the code I’m using. Data from $pass comes from a form submited from the other page:

<?php
 $pass = $_POST['pass'];
 $password = "content";  // Modify Password to suit for access, Max 10 Char.
?>

<html>
<title></title>
<head>

<?php 
 // If password is valid let the user get access
 if ( "$pass" == "$password") {
?>

<!-- START OF HIDDEN HTML - PLACE YOUR CONTENT HERE -->
</head>
<body>
You have gained access!
<!-- END OF HIDDEN HTML -->

<?php 
 } else {
   // Wrong password or no password entered display this message
   print "<p align=\"center\"><font color=\"red\"><b>Restricted Area!</b><br>Please enter from the log in page</font></p>";}
}
?>

</body>
</html>
