Hi 

I have a php script which insert a row in one of my table. Now i want the 
auto_generated id produced by this insert query. I know i can use mysql_insert_id 
function to fetch that auto_generated id. But my question is say two or more person 
visiting the same page/script causes a insert operation in the table at the same time. 
so there are chances of getting wrong auto_generated ids for different visitors. why 
am i saying this can be clear from below example.

Say one insert operation is in the progress and by the time control switches/call to 
mysql_insert_id function another insert operation starts .. so ultimately 
mysql_insert_id will fetch 2nd insert operation id which should not be the case. How 
to resolve this case??

Thanks
