I have php constructing a query for me to add data to a mySQL database.. an example of the query once its formed would be:

INSERT INTO `parents`                                     
( `par_firstname` , `par_surname` , `par_primary`, `par_email` , `par_phone` , `par_acct` )                                     
VALUES 
( 'James','Bradshaw', '0', 'j.c.bradshaw@hotmail.com', '02084326358',  '5e2d59ae051b6b54499c8e8bfdde2f6e' );                                     

INSERT INTO `parents`                                     
( `par_firstname` , `par_surname` , `par_primary`, `par_email` , `par_phone` , `par_acct` )                                     
VALUES 
('Jenny','Edmonson','1','jenny@notreal.com','0778961148','5e2d59ae051b6b54499c8e8bfdde2f6e');                                     

INSERT INTO `child`                                     
( `child_firstname` , `child_surname` , `child_middlename`, `child_yearkey` , `child_acct` , `child_dob` )                                     
VALUES 
('cfirstname1','csurname1','cmname1','Year 4','5e2d59ae051b6b54499c8e8bfdde2f6e','07/08/95');                                     
INSERT INTO `child`                                     
( `child_firstname` , `child_surname` , `child_middlename`, `child_yearkey` , `child_acct` , `child_dob` )                                     
VALUES 
('cfirstname2', 'csurname2', 'cmname2', 'Year 1','5e2d59ae051b6b54499c8e8bfdde2f6e','09/01/99');

That query works when I take it and run it on the server but when run with mysql_query I get this syntax error:

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 '; INSERT INTO `parents` ( `par_firstname` , `par_surname` , ' at line 10

The frustrating thing being that the sql is constructed using loops and its hitting a syntax error on the second parent so the syntax has to be identical to the first one! grrr!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
