OK... if it does, cool, lemme check up on the docs for mysql and get back to ya
shortly... I ran that command from the muysql prompt and it died "near set ..." so
I quickly thought "mysql must not support insert set's"... as many DB's don't. But
I'll hit the docs, formulate a set insert statment similar and get back to ya...
cuz if it works, your right, that is the way we should be doing it.
On another note though... when inserting a new user these should be a few defaults:
NumLogins - 0 (NOT NULL)
ModTime - NULL
Actually - ANYTIME you ever code a update, or insert statment - ModTime should
ALWAYS be set to NULL, as I said before, this prompts MySQL to properly timestamp
the record.
Be back to ya soon :)
