UPDATE: NOW RESOLVED – Thanks everyone!
Fix: I had a column named “referred_by” and in my code it’s called “referred_by_id” – so it was trying to INSERT to a column that didn’t exist — once I fixed this, it decided to work!
I have limited time left to work on this project. The clock is ticking.
I’m trying to INSERT $php_variables into a TABLE called “clients”.
I’ve been trying for hours to get this script to work, and I got it to work once, but then I realized I forgot a field, so I had to add another column to the TABLE and when I updated the script it stopped working. I reverted by but now it’s still not working and I’m just frustrating myself too much.

You’ve an error on line 81:
I don’t see an IF construct before that, make the appropriate correction and run the script again.
