Hello,

I have more of a conceptual question about the way databases work, in a web 
framework, but I will be implementing things with CherryPy and SQLAlchemy.  If 
you 
make a web form that adds rows to a database, and use sqlite as the engine, is 
there 
a danger of a race condition if several users at the same time try to submit 
the 
form?  I want a unique row id, and make a unique identifier for the 
submissions.  Am 
I in danger of having multiple submissions given the same identifier?

I know that if I implemented things without a database, but used a flat file or 
something like it, I would have that possibility, when two processes try to 
read and 
update the file at the same time.

If you want something more specific, I can throw some code together, but I 
wanted to 
get an answer before that because it will change the way I develop the code.


                thanks,

                        Brian Blais
