How do you get the last replaced record id. Wondering if there is something similar to last_insert_id().

Thanks in advance!

KarveR,

I don't think that is what he was looking for.


QAteste,

What you are looking for doesn't exist. mysql_insert_id() works only when the table generates a new id number on an autoincrement field. Updates do not generate new table IDs.

If you can give us some more specifics on your requirements, we might be able to come up with a workaround. ______________________________________________________________________

Actually it does have something to do with stars, but it's in reference to a thread from the Ethics forum.

Do you mean to sit there with that face on the front of your head and tell me that some one with whom you have no economic, social or familial connection buys you lunch on a regular basis? ______________________________________________________________________
