Insert multiple rows into mysql (items separated by comma)

Question

I have a small problem :) I was searching the web but didn\'t find any solutions.

I have a value like this (got it from $_GET[])

tag1, tag2, tag3, tag4

Answer 1

Try this for size: (combining ideas from a number of people who almost got it right).

$values =  array(
                    33=>'tag1'),
                    33=>'tag2'),
                    33=>'tag3'),
                );

$sql = "INSERT INTO table (id, value) VALUES ";
$count=0;
foreach ($values as $id=> $value)
{
    if ($count++ > 0)
        $sql .= ',';
    $sql .= "($id, '$value')";
}
$query = mysql_query($sql, $db);
