So, I can run the following statements from within mysql itself successfully.

SET @fname = 'point1';
SELECT * FROM country WHERE name=@fname;`

But when I try to pass the query through php like this and run it, I get an error on the second line

$query = "SET @fname = 'point1';";

$query  .=  "SELECT * FROM country WHERE name=@fname;";
