Re^2: If Statement

When I put the parenthesis that way, I no longer get syntax error but when I put in my Deal ID into the form and hit submit I don't get my information on the screen instead it acts like a comparison and PERL returns 0 (true) or 1 (false) all that displays to the screen is 1 false. The number is in the log though that I am typing in and it should print to the screen. Any idea what I'm doing wrong ?
