I have an HTML page that interacts with this CGI script, however, whenever I run the cgi script it says there is a syntax error on the end_html line, Can anyone help me? This is for a term project. 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI qw(standard);
use DBI();
use DBD::mysql;
use warnings;
use strict;
use diagnostics;

my $q = CGI->new;

my $name = $q->param('name');
my $day = $q->param('day');
my $number = $q->param('number');
    
print $q->header;
    $q->start_html( -title => "Add user", -bgcolor => #ffffff);
    $q->p("Data submitted");
    $q->end_html;
    
print $name;
print "\n$day\n";
print $number;
