yup, you're right. session is not the correct word, but i can't find the correct/easy word to subtitute session, so i just use session but put it inside quotes :) > However it is also possible that in order to save time the LAST_ID > information is built into the resultset coming back from the INSERT - > thus when mysql_insert_id() is called PHP would not need to go back > to MySQL/last_insert_id(). yes, what you said could be true also. Well, there's only one way to be sure how mysql_insert_id() works...read the source code of PHP :) but unfortunately I dont have the source code, and even if I do, I won't read it, because I am lousy at reading someone's code...:) nice discussion, Neil :) -- Jimmy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Buy Land.
