[Zope] LAST INSERT ID driving me crazy

[Cliff Ford]

This is how it works for MySQL:

insert into table_name (
ItemID,
ItemDate,
etc
)
values
(
<dtml-sqlvar ItemID type=int>,
<dtml-sqlvar ItemDate type=string>,
etc
)

<dtml-var sql_delimiter>
select LAST_INSERT_ID() as BaptismID

You have to have the select LAST_INSERT_ID call in the same query as the 
insert, and you have to have the sql_delimiter. I have a vague 
recollection that LAST_INSERT_ID is MySQL specific.
