Ron,
No problem. I was poking around a bit more, and this is from the
PHP.net site:
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.
