mysql_insert_id

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

mysql_insert_id --  Get the ID generated from the previous INSERT operation

Description

int mysql_insert_id ( [resource link_identifier])

mysql_insert_id() returns the ID generated for an AUTO_INCREMENT column by the previous INSERT query using the given link_identifier. If link_identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is assumed.

mysql_insert_id() returns 0 if the previous query does not generate an AUTO_INCREMENT value. If you need to save the value for later, be sure to call mysql_insert_id() immediately after the query that generates the value.

Замечание: The value of the MySQL SQL function LAST_INSERT_ID() always contains the most recently generated AUTO_INCREMENT value, and is not reset between queries.

Внимание

mysql_insert_id() converts the return type of the native MySQL C API function mysql_insert_id() to a type of long (named int in PHP). If your AUTO_INCREMENT column has a column type of BIGINT, the value returned by mysql_insert_id() will be incorrect. Instead, use the internal MySQL SQL function LAST_INSERT_ID() in an SQL query.

Пример 1. mysql_insert_id Example

<?php
    mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password") or
        die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
    mysql_select_db("mydb");

    mysql_query("INSERT INTO mytable (product) values ('kossu')");
    printf ("Last inserted record has id %d\n", mysql_insert_id());
?>
