A bit more on return values:
mysql_insert_id() returns 0 if you haven't actually manipulated anything yet.
Also, it returns 0 even if the DB connection is lost[0] between inserting and calling
mysql_insert_id() - so you can always count on getting an integer.
[0] By 'lost' I mean e.g. a DB crash. Actually closing the open link and then trying to
communicate with the DB will of course result in an error.
