if you use an auto_increment column type a new number will be created
for all new records. I don't think there's an auto_incrementing
alphanumberic column type - you'd have to do it with code

Subject: [PHP-DB] mysql ID's

I am trying to make it so that when i create a row with user details one
of
the columns is automatically generated with the next id. for example
