I tried that too, but I'm still quite shaky on how to write triggers,
and the same thing happened there: the inserted record was immediately
deleted. I solved the problem temporarily with two lines in PHP:
function set_last_selected_place($place) {
pg_query("DELETE FROM recent_places WHERE place_fk = $place");
pg_query("INSERT INTO recent_places (place_fk) VALUES ($place)");
}
As my application is single-user, and everything is already wrapped up
in a transaction anyway, there's no real problem with this. But I'd
still like to understand how to do it 'properly' inside the DB.
