    <p>So first of all I'm trying to populate a database with this PHP script. The error I am receiving 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 near '' at line 1" I understand what the error is I just cannot seem to find it.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php include("server_connect.php"); //select the db mysql_select_db("moviedatabase"); //populate titles $insert = "INSERT INTO tblMovieTitle (movie_id, movie_title, movie_genre, movie_rating, movie_actor_fname, movie_actor_lname) " . "VALUES (1, 'Inglorious Basterds', 'War', 8, 'Brad', 'Pitt'), " . "(2, 'Zombieland', 'Comedy', 8, 'Jesse', 'Eisenberg'), " . "(3, 'Cowboys and Aliens', 'Action', 6, 'Olivia', 'Wilde'), " . "(4, 'Contagion', 'Drama', 7, 'Matt', 'Damon')"; $results = mysql_query($insert) or die (mysql_error()); //populate genre $genre = "INSERT INTO tblMovieGenre (movie_genre_ID, movie_genre) " . "VALUES (100, 'Action'), " . "(101, 'Horror'), " . "(102, 'Comedy'), " . "(103, 'War'), " . "(104, 'Drama'), " . "(105, 'Kids'), " . "(106, 'Sci-Fi'), " . "(107, 'Action'), " ; $results = mysql_query($genre) or die (mysql_error()); //populate movie rating $rating = "INSERT INTO tblMovieRating (movie_rating_ID, movie_rating ) " . "VALUES (1001, 1), " . "(1002, 2), " . "(1003, 3), " . "(1004, 4), " . "(1005, 5), " . "(1006, 6), " . "(1007, 7), " . "(1008, 8), " . "(1009, 9), " . "(1010, 10)"; $results = mysql_query($rating) or die (mysql_error()); //check if database is populated echo "Database populated"; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Yeah so I really can't figure out where the error is coming from, anyone? Thanks beforehand for the help.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
