mysql获取autoincrement,MYSQL：SQL查询以获取autoincrement字段的值

I have a table. The primary key is id and its auto incremented.

Now when I insert a new record, I need to get the id with which the record was updated.

How can I do that? If i use the query...

select max(id) from table_name

...after executing I can get the id. But can I be sure that its the id of the record that was just inserted? Because many people will be using the app at same time.

I am using php and mysql.

Can ayone provie me a sample code snippet in php with mysql?

If you want to find out what the newest ID from an auto increment column is, you just have to run the mysql_insert_id() function right after your insert query.

Like so:

//--connection already made to database

//--now run your INSERT query on the table

mysql_query("INSERT INTO table_name (foo_column) VALUES ('everlong')");

//-- right after that previous query, you run this

$newest_id = mysql_insert_id();

And now $newest_id will contain the ID of the latest row inserted.
