And he doesnt seem to have this problem at all yet I do and im pretty new to this whole php thing so i am really stuck.

 

Try with a single equals sign.

You should be testing your queries directly against the DB if you have these kinds of problems, that way you could isolate where the problem lies, with your program or with the query/db.

Also, try to parameterize that query. It's open to SQL injection attacks.
