My if… else statements do not seem to be working and I can’t figure out what I seem to do be doing wrong. I’m hoping that if the edit_id of the url is 3, then generate text from the database plus a form. Otherwise, just generate text from the database. Whatever I do, the form seems to appear regardless. Any help would be appreciated.
<?php
$edit_id=$_GET['edit_id'];
require_once('connectvars.php');
$query = sprintf("SELECT * FROM editorial WHERE edit_id='$edit_id'");
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) {
$message = 'Invalid query: ' . mysql_error() . "\
";
$message .= 'Whole query: ' . $query;
die($message);
}
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
if ($edit_id = "3") {
echo $row['edit_text'];
echo '<br><br>
<form method="post" action="sendorder.php">
<fieldset>
<ul><ul>
<table><tr>
<td><label for="company">Company/Organization</label><br>
<input size=25 type="company" id="company" name="company" /></td>

</form><br>';
}
else {
echo $row['edit_text'];
}}
?>
