extrovertive Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 So, each tag has an id of its own?Let's say a user has a blog, and enter tags. If a tag_name already exist in the database, then don't add it right, but if it doesn't exists then auto increment the tag_id and add the tag_name?
