$sql = "insert into table2(fld,fld2)values( 2, 4)"; $db->query($sql); $new_id = $db->query('select last_insert_id');
$sql = "insert into table3(table2_id, fld) values($new_id,3)" $db->query($sql);
the altenative syntax for the secound query could also be $sql = "insert into table3(table2_id, fld) values(last_insert_id() ,3)"
hop it helps Pete
