As far as I can see the parens and brackets are balanced
    
Nope - just loaded this snippet into BBEdit which has a very handy 
facility for seeing whether pairs of brackets (of all types) are 
balanced. You have no closing ) to match the ( after '.observe'. In 
fact you need a ');' at the end of the whole thing.

And btw, shouldn't mail/process_message.php be in quotes?
  right you are, both times.

  Many thanks !
