maybe you could solve this like that: before querying your db, you should have a $created-variable ....use microtime() or whatelse you like. then you have another uniq 'id' you can ask for the id of the tuple you added to your table before...
im sure there is another, easier way, maybe with mysql-function (last-affected-row - i dont know) - but im postgres user :) and do it like i described before also for other reasons (its fine to have a timestamp...). volker ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marie Osypian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 5:43 PM Subject: [PHP-DB] Related Tables - Capture ID > Hello, > > I have three table in which I am inserting records into in one script.
