Note Submitter: Wayne Theisinger ---- In response to treylane at example dot com. It is very very very important that you put in an "or die" or some other form of error handling. Some scripts can fail invisibly and insert invalid data throughout your whole database because of mysql_insert_id inserting the last successful insertid rather than reporting that the last attempt failed. example of an or die statement. $result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Invalid query: " . mysql_error()); $EventID = mysql_insert_id();
