Why doesn't this work?

    $row = mysql_fetch_array ($result);



$sql = "INSERT INTO `restaurants` (name, address, inDate, inType, notes,

       $result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

The error I keep getting is:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to
your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use

And I have gone in the mySQL panel and let it make the query ....so I'm
really stumped why it hangs ...

Try removing the backticks from the tablename, I have found that if you include the backticks around the table name and not the field names, mysql will throw the occassional fit.
