The query code is:

<code>$email=htmlspecialchars($_POST["email"]);
if($sql->getData('SELECT * FROM user WHERE email='.$email)==NULL){
</code>

The code for getData is:

<code>public function getData($sql,$type=1){
    $data=Array();
    $db=$this->db();

    $result=$db->query($sql);
    $sth = $db->prepare($sql);
    $sth->execute();
    if(is_bool($result))
        return $result;
    if($type==1)
        while($a = $sth->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC))
            $data[]=$a;
    elseif($type==2)
        while($a = $sth->fetch(PDO::FETCH_BOTH))
            $data[]=$a;

    if($data)
        return $data;
    else
        return NULL;
}
</code>

You need to quote your emailaddress

<code class="php"><?php
$email=htmlspecialchars($_POST["email"]);
if($sql->getData('SELECT * FROM user WHERE email="'.$email.'"')==NULL){
</code>

This is a syntax error in your SQL statement. The string must be enclosed in quotation marks:

<code class="php">$pdo->getData("SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `email` = '{$email}'");</code>

If you encounter this kind of error in the future, you will know where you went wrong by printing your statement
