Hello Bill -

The 'offending' site and article is at
http://www.sitepoint.com/article/site-mysql-postgresql-2/3

Instead, do SELECT currval('<seqname>'), which is guaranteed to be isolated

I've also gotten other advice to SELECT next_val ( whatever the exact wording is) will reserve that serial number for you. Is that true?
