DB_Functions.php

private $db;

     // constructor
     function __construct() {
         require_once 'DB_Connect.php';
         // connecting to database
         $this->db = new DB_Connect();
         $this->db->connect();

function __destruct() {

}

 public function storeUnit($email, $units, $maint, $attent, $done) {
    $con = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD) or die (mysql_error());
    mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE, $con);

        $format = 'Y-m-d G:i:s';
        $date = date($format);
        $result = mysql_query("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS $email( Units VARCHAR(10), Finish VARCHAR(20), Attent VARCHAR(200), Maint VARCHAR(200), created_at VARCHAR(30))",$con);
        $result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO '$email'(Units, Finish, Attent, Maint, created_at) VALUES('$units', '$done', '$attent', '$maint', '$date')");
        return true;
}

Answer 1

try using ` instead of ‘ for tablename

$result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `$email`(Units, Finish, Attent, Maint, created_at) VALUES('$units', '$done', '$attent', '$maint', '$date')");

Edit : Try looking if your database uses InnoDB, you may use transactional mode… so you must commit changes if autocommit is disabled
