Question

If I execute an insert query with a stored procedure with php and the mysqli_* functions, is there a way to retrieve the value of an autoincrement id field?
mysqli->insert_id does not seem to work.

Answer 1

Are you sure the last query you preformed was an INSERT?

mysqli->insert_id seems the proper answer:

Return Values

The value of the AUTO_INCREMENT field that was updated
by the previous query. Returns zero if
there was no previous query on the
connection or if the query did not
update an AUTO_INCREMENT value.
