Well what do ya know, this works! Thanks for the pointer.
if ($tableid=="newfaq") {
echo "adding FAQ<BR>";
$newfaq_query = "INSERT INTO `faq` (`faqid`, `question`, `answer`)
VALUES ('', '$question', '$answer')";
$newfaqResult = mysql_query($newfaq_query);
$newfaq_query2 = "INSERT into `faqRelatedToProduct` (`id`,
`fgNumber`, `faqid`) VALUES ('', '$fgNumber', last_insert_id() )";
$newfaqResult2 = mysql_query($newfaq_query2);
echo $newfaq_query."<BR>".$newfaq_query2;
}
