[RESOLVED] Get record number of last created

i need to get the record number of the of the record i just created. i have and field called id that is an int that is auto incremental and i use the following

Code:

---

$query = "INSERT INTO WorkOrders VALUES ('id', '$siteid', '$session->username', '$unitnumber', '$callindate', '$completeddate', '$modifieddate', '$customername', '$phone', '$emailwhendone', '$assignedto', '$address', '$worktobedone', '$workcompleted')";
mysql_query($query);

mysql_close();

---

at this point here i have some text that says your new record has been completed, but i would like to say in there the record number as well so i can place a link in there to edit it. i can do the link but what is the code to get the rec number?

i figured it out after the query statement i just add the following then use the variable through out

Code:

---

$new_rec_id = mysql_insert_id();
