Change it to == 1 if("$current_month == 1")

I have this code: <?php $current_month = date (m); $current_year = date (Y); if("$current_month = 1") { $previous_month = 12; $previous_year = $current_year - 1; } else { $previous_month = $current_month - 1; $previous_year = $current_year; } print("<ul>"); print("<li><a href=\"inquiry_reports.php?search=search&new_year=$previous_year&new_month=$ previous_month\">Previous Month</a>"); print("<li><a href=\"inquiry_reports.php?search=search&new_year=$current_year&new_month=$c urrent_month\">Current Month</a>"); print("</ul>"); ?> but for some reason, no matter what the month, the first if statement (if current_month = 1) is seen as true and executes... any suggestions?
