Option 1. Preferred:
Use mysql_num_rows() on a query allready returning the valid dates as
indicated earlier, and return out of the function before fetching
non-existent data.
Option 2. Damage control without to much rewrites (not recommended):
Set a boolean variable to false in the beginning, and set it to true (in
this case every time) when a match is found. Move you 'None'-display
outside of the loop, and only display it if your boolean is still false.
Seriously consider letting the database handle matching birthdays, you're
fetching a way to big resultset from your database.
