MySQL query error in inner join - php

Question

I faced an error, I want to take username from member table and image path from uploading directory and my image is is autoincrement.
INSERT INTO profileimage SET
`imageid`='',
`username`='username',
`imagepath`='$target_file'
inner join member
on profileimage.username=member.username;
I got following error
1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'inner join member on profileimage.username=member.username' at line 5
My PHP script is here
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
include('configdb.php');
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$target_dir = "../Photos/";
$target_file = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$uploadOk = 1;
$imageFileType = pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
if(isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$check = getimagesize($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]);
if($check !== false) {
echo "File is an image - " . $check["mime"] . ".";
$uploadOk = 1;
} else {
echo "File is not an image.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
}
if (file_exists($target_file)) {
$target_file = $target_dir . rand(1,100000) . basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$uploadOk = 1;
}
if ($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 600000) {
echo "Sorry, your file is too large.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
if($imageFileType != "jpg" && $imageFileType != "png" && $imageFileType != "jpeg"
&& $imageFileType != "gif" ) {
echo "Sorry, only JPG, JPEG, PNG & GIF files are allowed.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
if ($uploadOk == 0) {
echo "Sorry, your file was not uploaded.";
} else
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $$target_dir.$target_file))
{
$QueryInsertFile="INSERT INTO imgstore SET
`imgpath`='$target_file'";
}
else {
echo "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file.";
}
}
?>

You should be using the following to select with insert:
INSERT INTO ProfileImage(col1, col2)
SELECT col1, col2
FROM member m INNER JOIN AnyTable k
ON m.Col1 = k.Col1
WHERE m.username = 'John'
Note: The column numbers must be the same.
