Is there a PEAR::DB equivalent to the mysql_insert_id()? I can't figure out how to get the primary key ID from the last insert query, without doing a second query (which seems ridiculous).
On that same note, are the mysql_insert_id() and pg_last_oid() equivalent? I thought they were, but when I used pg_last_oid() I got some crazy number that was definitely not the last primary key ID.
