"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=' in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/register.php on line 10"
could someobody please tell me were I went wrong

Heres my code:
Code:
<?php
echo "<h1>Register</h1>";

$submit = $_POST['submit'];

$firstname = strip_tags($_POST['firstname']);
$lastname = strip_tags($_POST['lastname']);
$address = strip_tags($_POST['address']);
$country = strip_tags($_POST['country']);
$state/provence = strip_tags($_POST['state/provence']);
$zipcode = strip_tags($_POST['zipcode']);
$username = strtolower(strip_tags($_POST['username']));
$password = strip_tags($_POST['password']);
$repeatpassword = strip_tags($_POST['repeatpassword']);
$date = date("y-m-d");


if ($submit)
{

	$connect = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
	mysql_select_db("phplogin");

	$namecheck = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username='$username'");
	$count = mysql_num_rows($namecheck);

	if ($count!=0)
	{

	die("Username already taken.");

	}


if ($firstname&&$lastname&&address&&country&&state/provence&&zipcode&&$username&&$password&&$repeatpassword)
{
	if ($password==$repeatpassword)
	{
	if (strlen($username)>25)
	{
	echo "Length of username is too long.";

	}
	else
	{
	if ( strlen($password) > 25 || strlen($password) < 6 )
    { 
	echo "Password must be between 6 and 25 characters";
	}
	else
	{
		$password = md5($password);
	$repeatpassword = md5($repeatpassword);

	$queryreg = mysql_query("

	INSERT INTO users VALUES ('','$firstname','$lastname','$address','$country','$state/provence','$zipcode','$username','$password','$date')

");

die("You have been registered <a href='index.php'>Return to login page</a>");


		}

	}

}
	else
		echo "Your passwords do not match";

	
}
else
	echo "Please fill in <b>all</b> fields.";

}

?>
