Question

Hi All,

I have a page with a PHP insert form that posts relevant info to the SQL database. At the same time the key value "reg_id" is auto incremented by the DB.

How do I get new auto incremented value that has been posted so that I can use it to pass to the next page?

I have posted the code below if this helps

Many thanks

John

  }

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
