You should try using mysql_insert_id() with the connection descriptor. For example:
$dblink = mysql_connect($host, $user, $password); mysql_select_db($databasename, $dblink); .... The $dblink variable or what I call the connection descriptor, should be used with mysql_insert_id($dblink); --Jon At 10:30 AM 12/12/2001 -0600, Yoed Anis wrote: >hey guys, > >quick question I'm having trouble finding an answer too. >In a mysql database, how can I select that last row entry.
