The ANSI-SQL syntax is to just use GRANT to create users. You will
still need to use GRANT twice for both users: joe@'%' and joe@'localhost'.
But I find the MySql syntax for creating user with CREATE USER and then
GRANT easier to follow:
CREATE USER joe@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'whateverpassword';
CREATE USER joe@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'whateverpassword';
GRANT ALL ON db1.* TO joe@'%';
GRANT ALL ON db1.* TO joe@'localhost';
If you see what I mean...
Just remember that a user always has a host, and you should always use
the two together.

Thanks Ben,
OK Got it,
One more thing, I have already created these users and don't want to mess their
passwords up or break their associated php scripts access.
So how do I grant users, who already have a password, localhost
access?
A user is always paired with a host. Therefore your user @'localhost'
is a new user. You will have to create with same password as existing :)
