Question

I am trying to execute the following code:

            $state  =   db_select('webform_email_confirm', 'wec')
            ->fields('wec')
            ->condition('nid', $form['nid']['#value'], '=')
            ->condition('cid1', $form['cid']['#value'], '=')
            ->or('cid2', $form['cid']['#value'], '=')
            ->execute()
            ->fetchAssoc();

The third statement, ->or('cid2', $form['cid']['#value'], '='), does not work.

I need to match records in my database in either cid1 or cid2.

You would have to use the db_or(), or the $query->where constructs.

Please have a look at this page for more information.

So basically, try:

$or = db_or()
         ->condition('cid1', $form['cid']['#value'])
         ->condition('cid2',  $form['cid']['#value']);

$state  = db_select('webform_email_confirm', 'wec')
        ->fields('wec')
        ->condition('nid', $form['nid']['#value'], '=')
        ->condition($or)
        ->execute()
        ->fetchAssoc();

The examples on the drupal website may be useful too:

$query
  ->condition('field1', array(1, 2), 'IN')
  ->condition(db_or()->condition('field2', 5)->condition('field3', 6))
// Results in:
// (field1 IN (:db_placeholder_1, :db_placeholder_2) AND (field2 = :db_placeholder3 OR field3 = :db_placeholder_4))
