You could cram as much of that as you want into $_SESSION. Or, after the first user, create the account, and record the fact that any subsequent users are to be tied to that account_id, and simply keep track of the account_id from then on, for as many users as they want to add. It would probably be MUCH easier and cleaner to just track the account_id and re-use it than to try to do the inserts in one big mess at the end. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
