The following sql statements work when called from command line i.e in the php path
<?php
$link = @mysql_connect()
or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
print ("Connected successfully");
// mysql_close($link);
$db = @mysql_select_db(my_database) or die(" Database Not Found:" .mysql_error());
print ("using my_database");
mysql_query("insert into table1 (std_id, std_name, stdmaj, std_new,
studentSSN, Date)
values( null, 'Kioshoere Merhi', 'International Studies', 'Junior', '26577922',
20003-07-25)");
mysql_query("insert into table2( std_id, optA, optB, optC,optD,
optE, optF, optG, optH, optJ, optL, optM)
values(0000, 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'Y', 'N', 'Y')");
mysql_query("insert into table3(std_ID, text_opt1, text_opt2, Ins_ID)
values(0000, 'Y', 'Y', 2)");
mysql_query("insert into table4(std_id, in_id, in_name, act_text, Date)
values(0000, 1, 'text', 'text string', null)");
