I'm sorry to be so obtuse, but I still don't get it ...
I've tried:
$sql = "INSERT INTO orders set products_ordered='$products',
ordered_by='$username', company='$company', address_1='$address_1',
address_2='$address_2', city='$city', state='$state', zip='$zip',
attn='$attn', special_instructions='$special_instructions',
shipping_instructions='$shipping_instructions', status='$status',
rush='$rush', date_ordered='$current_time' , month_due='$month_due',
day_due='$day_due'
" ;
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("ERROR -- try again111111 or see Kenn
Murrah");
$order_number=mysql_insert_id;
.... and I'm still not getting a value for $order_number, the
auto-incremented value.
I'm REALLY sorry to waste the list's time with this ... but I do appreciate
the help from all of you ...
Kenn
