Richard, you really need to get a good book on php. Trying to
haphazardly search the internet doesn't work well. And while php.net is
a good reference, I don't find it to be a good learning tool. Please
save yourself a lot of heartache and spend a few dollars for a good book
to help you learn.

As for your question - you're confusing '=' and '=='. There is a
difference.
