PHP MySQL query not displaying data

Hello!

I am having some problems with a database query that I am trying to do.
I am trying to develop a way to search a database for an entry and
then edit the existing values. Upon submit, the new values are updated
in all corresponding tables (the function of the pages in question).
However, on the page that does the DB update, I also want to do some
checks on the data before performing the update.

Now, the problem that I am running into is that when I don't update the
primary key field (keyid) the page is running into the section where it
displays a message that the keyid already exists. This only happens
when the keyid on the previous page is not changed.

Upon troubleshooting the problem I found that the very first SELECT
statement does not seem to be returning any rows despite the fact that
the statement, when run on the SQL server, returns exactly one row. If
any could provide some assistance with this matter, I would be most
appreciative.

Regards;

Jayson Schultz

Code:
<?php
session_start();
header("Cache-control: private"); //IE 6 Fix

[snip code]

Start scripts with:
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', TRUE);

Append mysql_error() to your message in the die() function call.

Use mysql_real_escape_string before inputting it blindly in a query.
