Okay, I feel like the correct answer to this is about 2mm back in my grey
matter.
1. I have a query that pulls the last row number when a newly inserted
record is added:
$maximum="SELECT MAX(payment_id) FROM payment_request";
$max_result=mssql_query($maximum);
while($max=mssql_fetch_row($max_result)){
}
$max_id = $max[0];
2. I have multiple selections for the user to pick, but regardless of what
they choose I want the $max_id variable to be passed to the next page.
3. Would I go about this by assigning $max_id to a hidden field like below?
<input type="hidden" value="<?php echo "$max_id"; ?>" size="5"
maxlength="10" name="max_id" />
4. And then to retrieve this value on my next page just get it out of
$_POST['max_id'] ??
Does that all sound correct?
