There are a few problems with that. First, you generally want a double equals '=='
with a numeric
comparison. You are assigning the value of "1" to $viewtag with returns "1" as the
result which
automatically evaluates

That will print all the time. You are assigning 1 to $viewtag, and
that's always true. Maybe you wanted == instead of =?
