If you are using a mysql database, you can do the following at the time
you insert the person's record into the database to obtain the id:
$query = "INSERT INTO table (field_1, field_2) VALUES ('x', 'y', 'z')";
//insert record
$result = mysql_query ($query); // Run the query.
$tid = mysql_insert_id($result); //Get the id of the record just
inserted
This requires that the id field be auto-generated in the previous query
using an AUTO_INCREMENT attribute. If not, it will return a '0'.
