Hi,

I'm fairly new to mysql, but I have a reasonable knowledge of PHP.

I just want to know is theres a simple way to return a primary key
value for a record I've just inserted?

In other environments I'd set a flag using the current time stamp which
is inserted with the record.

Then I'd select on that timestamp and get the primary key value.

Is there a simpler way?

Jules.
