如何在mysql中插入2个相关记录

Question

i want to store 2 related record in 2 different table in mysql
i have these information
name, option1, option2

name and its id are store in users table and options are store in options table
the uid in this table is auto increment

users table

uid --- name
1   --- Jack
2   --- Sara

options table

user_uid --- option
1        --- aaa
1        --- bbb
2        --- ccc
2        --- ddd

the question is how can i find next uid in users table to save my options with that foreign key, there are several ways to get next generated id like

LAST_INSERT_ID() 

or

mysql_insert_id()

or

$result = mysql_query("SHOW TABLE STATUS LIKE 'table_name'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$nextId = $row['Auto_increment']; 

but if several request coming to server in same time are these ways work ?
what if after i get last id, another record saved to db and change last id
is there any way to reserve next auto increment id and get that ?

Answer 1

Apart from the fact that mysql functions are deprecated and removed in PHP 7, the mysql_insert_id will work just fine, since that the function returns the last generated id using your connection. In case another record is created by someone else, then you will get the last generated id using your connection and not the last inserted id into that table.

Try using PDO or MySQLi instead.
