I think you're misunderstanding his question. As I read it, he was worried that multiple requests would be handled by the same connection _at the same time_, making it impossible to rely on last_insert_id. Since each apache child or thread handles requests sequentially, that would never happen, and he doesn't need to be concerned about it. You're correct that it would be totally wrong to try to use last_insert_id for a value that was inserted on a previous request. That will not work reliably. - Perrin
