David, I see... that's a good debugging tool, mysql_affected_rows(). Thank you for pointing me to that one. Still, I am glad that this sort of situation has been anticipated by the MySQL developers (or perhaps I should say the ANSI SQL spec drafters), and have decided to use INSERT IGNORE to handle my situation, if only to be forward compatible with a version of PHP that -might- pay attention.
