Hi there,
I seem to be having a problem retrieving the last inserted ID for a
table.
The query I am using is as follows:
mysql> select distinct LAST_INSERT_ID() as LastID from listings;
This can be simplified as SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID as LastID; no need
to retrieve the value once for every row in the listings table.
Oops, sorry. That should be SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() as LastID;
Forgot the parentheses.
