Hello

I got a verified msn addres: ***@gmail.com.
I also activated it on the bot page (msn)
I uploaded bot.php to my webhost.
When i start talking to my bot in msn it doesn't say anything..
I onley see it's typing but it doesn't say anything.
I used this script:
<?php
switch ($REQUEST['step']) {
case 1:
echo "Hi, what's your name?";
break;
case 2:
echo "Hi " . $
REQUEST['value1'] . ", where do you live?";
break;
case 3:
echo "Well, welcome to this hello world bot, " . $REQUEST['value1'] . "
from " . $
REQUEST['value2'] . ".";
break;
} ?> .. Now i tryed with a single line like this: "Hello"
I saved as bot.php and uploaded to my webhost.
Now it does say hello..
So why does the script not work??
this is my screen name:
***@bot.im

Hope some1 can help me!

    If I send a message to your bot at ***@gmail.com I get a
    response of Welkom bij deze 24/7. Binnenkort meer mogelijkheden
    beschikbaar!

    This is the same text your URL returns if I visit it in a web browser.
    Is this not the text you are expecting to receive?

    Yeh like i said that script works.
    But this one doesn't :
    <?php
    switch ($REQUEST['step']) {
    case 1:
    echo "Hi, what's your name?";
    break;
    case 2:
    echo "Hi " . $REQUEST['value1'] . ", where do you live?";
    break;
    case 3:
    echo "Well, welcome to this hello world bot, " . $REQUEST['value1'] . "
    from " . $REQUEST['value2'] . ".";
    break;
    } ?>

    Please try again with ***@gmail.com i got that script running now.

    Your server isn't running PHP code. When I fetch that url, I get the
    PHP code, not the output of the code. Check with your host to see if
    they're able to host PHP.
