PHP for interated MYSQL query

[rastem]

Hey all,

I'm sorta new at this, and I need to enter a redundant set of values into a MYSQL database but I'm not sure how to go about doing this. The values are the same to start out, and are modified later by scripts online. Is there an easy way using PHP to get this done, some sort of while statement or something? Again I apologize for the newb question but I'm at a loss.

Ras.

If you set the default values for each column in the database, then whenever you create a new row you can simple set all values to default with a simple SQL statement:

INSERT INTO table_name
VALUES SET column_1=DEFAULT,
  column_2=DEFAULT,
  column_3=DEFAULT,
  column_4=DEFAULT etc ....
