Can't get username from table.

Hi again.

Just having a mysqli issue. First time using databases and tables.

I have a table with PlayerIDs and Username as the title. Table itself is called users

When a person logs in i create a session variable for ID

 

	$_SESSION['ID'] = $id;

 

Now in the game I want to retrieve that username so I'm able to display it. I don't want to use the session variable to do this as i will be reusing that username constantly so i would want it stored in a variable.

 

$data = mysqli_query($mysqli, "SELECT * FROM userss WHERE PlayerIDs =" . $_SESSION['ID']); 
$info = mysqli_fetch_array( $data ); 

 

The above is my sql that im using. And to ouput the result I use

 

echo $info['Username'];

 

Yet nothing gets displayed.

Is there a way where I can call all this data easily and display it easily. Like for example if i wanted to display there level aswell. So in other words control what is displayed?

Thanks
