I am experimenting with multiple tables, it is only a test that is my local machine only. This is the current code, which does not work , I have tried to concatonate the insert statements. I have tried multiple $query variables, but it is just overwriting itself (only the last one gets inserted). I also tried writing the $query as an array, which got me an error message (saying it was expecting a string and I offered an array). Someone point me in the right direction?
