Making multiple rows with one query

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

I have a table called efed_handler_characters with two fields handler_id and bio_id. What query 2 is supposed to do is get the id from the handler and then with each char(acter) is supposed to make a new record for each of them with that same handler id. I"m trying to figure out how this is done?
Code: <?php
case 1:
echo $e;
require_once('../backstageconfig.php');
require_once('../backstagefunctions.php');
?>
<h1 class="backstage">Handler Management</h1><br />
<h2 class="backstage">Add New Handler Account</h2><br />
<form name="addnewhandler" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="handler" />
<table width="100%" class="table2">
<tr>
<td width="120" class="rowheading">Username:</td><td class="row3"><input type="text" name="login" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Password:</td><td class="row3"><input type="password" name="password" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Surname:</td><td class="row3">
<input type="text" name="surname" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Firstname:</td>
<td class="row3"><input type="text" name="firstname" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Email:</td>
<td class="row3"><input type="text" name="email" class="fieldtext490"></td>

<td class="rowheading">AIM:</td>
<td class="row3"><input type="text" name="aim" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">MSN:</td>
<td class="row3"><input type="text" name="msn" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Forum ID:</td>
<td class="row3"><input type="text" name="forumid" class="fieldtext490"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Account:</td><td class="row3">
<select name="enabled" class="selection">
<option value="0">- Select -</option>
<?php
$query = 'SELECT name,id FROM efed_list_status';
$result = mysql_query ( $query );
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc ( $result ) )
{
print "<option value="".$row['id']."">".$row['name']."</option>r";
}
?>
</select></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowheading">Administrator:</td><td class="row3">
