Hi,
IMHO:
I think you should try :
1)
SET @a:=0;
LOCK TABLE your_table_name WRITE;
INSERT what_client_must_to_insert
SELECT @a:=MAX(ID) FROM table....etc
UNLOCK TABLE;
After unlock the table you can find the value of variable @a by doing:
SELECT @a;
2)
INSERT what_client_must_to_insert
SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID();
Regards,
Gelu
