Lets say you have a form that when saved to the mysql database creates
a unique incremental id. The form is just the first part of a series
of things the user can do, so once the ID is created, the page would
need to know immediately what this ID is. Is there a way to grab this
ID instantly once it is created? Obviously if this were a sign-up for
and a new user name and password are involved, you can have the user
login after the initial set up and this select statement would bring
back the ID. But the situation I have doesn't work like that.
The way I have been dealing with this is simply to have a select
statement after the initial insert that requests the record based on a
couple of other fields that are likely unique. But this seems like a
rather kludgy way of doing it. Is there some other solution.
