I'm trying to search my db and display everyone who has a birthday
that month. I fixed the forever loop and it displaying people without
a birthdate entered. The problem is it keeps changing the currentmonth
variable.

function displayBirthdays($connect, $db_table4)
{
$currentmonth = date("m");
$currentday = date("d");

$sql = "SELECT dob, lastName, firstName FROM $db_table4";
$result = mysql_query ($sql, $connect) or die ('Query failed:
' .mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$lastname = $row["lastName"];
$firstname = "***";
$dob = $row['dob'];
$month = substr($dob,0,2);
$day = substr($dob,3,2);
if ($currentmonth = $month AND $month != 00)
{
echo "$month";
echo "$currentmonth";
echo"$firstname $lastname [$day]<BR>";
}
}
}
