Is it possible to execute more than one sql run in one php script/file?
Im trying to write a script that creates a reference list in the Harvard referencing style.
What i would like to do is letting my script use secondary sql queries in lookup tables. Script is below. It works fine apart from the piece with "sql2" in it. Is it possible to use multiple queries like this?
Best regards
