Cannot "insert into" database

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

include("db.php");



        global $dbServer, $dbUser, $dbPass, $dbName;



        $cxn = @ConnectToDb($dbServer, $dbUser, $dbPass, $dbName);

          mysql_select_db($cxn);

          

          $result = mysql_query("select Max(orderId) As Buyer_Id from buyer");

        $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

        $Get_Buyer_Id = $row['Buyer_Id'];

        

        $result = mysql_query("select items.itemName, cart.qty from cart inner join items on cart.itemId 

          = items.itemId where cart.cookieId = '". GetCartId() . "' order by 

          items.itemName asc");

        $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

        

        echo "Hello ".$HTTP_GET_VARS['Get_Name']."<br>";

        echo "Your order is as bellow:<br>";

        echo "Your order id is ".$Get_Buyer_Id."<br>";

  do

  {

  echo $row['itemName']." = ".$row['qty']."<br>";

  } 



  while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result));



    echo "Total: ".$HTTP_GET_VARS['Get_Total'];

    

        mysql_select_db($cxn);



      $result = mysql_query ("Insert Into order Values (".$Get_Buyer_Id.", ".$row['itemName'].", ".$row['qty'].", ".$HTTP_GET_VARS['Get_Total'].")");

    mysql_query("delete from cart where cart.cookieId = '". GetCartId() . "'");

Are you sure you really have an existing table called order???
Shouldn't the db not allow you to create that table as it is a keyword?

Also, you might want to take a look at your query.
It is very unorganized:

Code:

("Insert Into order Values (".$Get_Buyer_Id.", ".$row['itemName'].", ".$row['qty'].", ".$HTTP_GET_VARS['Get_Total'].")");

Try putting this into a variable that way you can print or echo the variable and check that you have valid sql.

It could also be that 'order' is a MySQL reserved word . . ?
