I have a PHP script that runs this query on Postgresql 7.2.3. Once it
inserts the record in the e_catalog table it takes the id value and
then inserts it in the e_catalog_cache table, the two tables must 
have
the same rows and values.
 I thought rhat inside a transaction block the subquery SELECT 
MAX(id)
 FROM e_catalog was safe from concurrent same transactions, that 
is
 the id value from SELECT MAX(id) FROM e_catalog was exactly 
that one
 inserted in the previous statement, but reading some threads in this
 mailing list I have some doubt now. 
This is the query:

BEGIN WORK;
 INSERT INTO e_catalog(id, name, descr) VALUES 
(nextval('sequence'),
 '$Name', '$Descr');

 INSERT INTO e_catalog_cache(id, name, descr) VALUES 
((SELECT MAX(id)
 FROM e_catalog), '$Name', '$Descr');

COMMIT WORK;

Thanks.
