On a users profile, there is a comment box that enables other users to post comments on their profile. I am now working on a dynamic comment area that has a changing text box depending on if A. you are looking at your own profile B. looking at someone elses profile C. not signed in at all.
I am trying to implement "updates" now when you are on your own page, type in the comment box, and it outputs in a designated area on your page. ( going to have it output on a community page but not there yet)
On this profile page, I have the insert query that is inserting regular comments just fine (the first insert query) and now am trying to add a second if(isset statement with a second insert query and am having trouble doing this.
It is not inserting and the page is loading blank after the submit button is hit. I am a newbie with php btw. Thank you:

if(isset($_POST['commentProfileSubmit']) && $auth) {
$query = "SELECT `Email` FROM `Users` WHERE `id` = '" . $prof->id . "'";

$result = mysql_fetch_array($request);
$Email = $result['Email'];
$to = $Email;
