EasyPHP Can't link database to PHP file

First time posting here as i am clueless on how to fix my problem, I've been searching for the past 2 hours on a fix but haven't been able to find one.

I have my website up and running, mostly html, then I have a login page which is supposed to be connected to a EasyPHP database, but I cannot link the login page to the database, I have a connectivity.php file to initiate the connection and check the username and password but I keep receiving errors.

Login Page Code:

<html>
<head> 
<title>Sign In</title>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css"/>

</head>
<body>
<div id="container">

<header>

<a href="index.html"><img src="images/Header.jpg" alt="logo" /></a>

Connectivity.php Page I have Changed the code around on this a lot looking for a solution, any ovbious mistake is more than helpful as my brain is fried at the moment. I also recieved these errors if they're helpful

Deprecated: mysql_connect(): The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead in G:\EasyPHP-DevServer-14.1VC11\data\localweb\my portable files\Website\connectivity.php on line 9
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''Ryan' AND pass = '1234'' at line 1

Here is the page code

<?php
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); /*Database host 127.0.0.1 which is local host*/
define('DB_NAME', 'Users'); /*Database Name*/
define('DB_USER','usename');
define('DB_PASSWORD','');

/*Establishing a connection to the database 
*/
$con=mysql_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USER,DB_PASSWORD) or die("Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysql_error());
$db=mysql_select_db(DB_NAME,$con) or die("Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysql_error());
/*
$ID = $_POST['user'];
$Password = $_POST['pass'];
*/
function SignIn()
{
session_start();   //starting the session for user profile page
if(!empty($_POST['user']))   //checking the 'user' name which is from Register.html, is it empty or have some text

/*SQL Query to validate the Username and and password combination */
{                           
$query = mysql_query("SELECT `ID`, `Pass` FROM `username` = '$_POST[user]' AND pass = '$_POST[pass]'") or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array($query) or die(mysql_error());
if(!empty($row['userName']) AND !empty($row['pass']))
{
$_SESSION['userName'] = $row['pass'];
echo "SUCCESSFULLY LOGIN TO USER PROFILE PAGE...";

}
else
{
    echo "SORRY... YOU ENTERD WRONG ID AND PASSWORD... PLEASE RETRY...";
}
}
}
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
SignIn();
}

?>

ANY help with this at all is greatly appreciated!

Thank's for taking the time to read this and help out if you decide to.

$query = mysql_query("SELECT `ID`, `Pass` FROM `username` = '$_POST[user]' AND pass = '$_POST[pass]'") or die(mysql_error());

should be

$query = mysql_query("SELECT `ID`, `Pass` FROM TABLE_NAME WHERE `username` = '$_POST[user]' AND pass = '$_POST[pass]'") or die(mysql_error());

TABLE_NAME is the name of table for which you are doing query
