A runtime error has occured
Do you wish to debug?
Line: 7
Error: 'return' statement outside of function
Code:

<title>Contact Us - CodingMasters</title>
<script language="javascript">
<!--function checkform(){
{if (document.formmail.body.value ="") or (document.formmail.changes.value ="")
alert("You did not fill in the comments box!")
return false}
else return true;
}
//-->
</script>

Woah, your syntax is completely wrong in that function..
Code:
<script language="javascript">
<!--function checkform() {
if (document.formmail.body.value ="") or (document.formmail.changes.value ="")
{
alert("You did not fill in the comments box!") ;
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
//-->
</script>

To add, put the function keyword on its own line, not directly after the html comment. And the comparison operator is ==, not =.
