or statement in mysql_query

[topflight]

I am trying to write a mysql query that will get either information take a look

 

$opm2 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `o` WHERE id='$id' AND a='AL OR a=EG'");

 

When I run that query it gets the wrong information, it dosen't even get the ID, it get some random ID.

 

The main question is how do you write an OR statement in a mysql_query
