Hello Ophir, thanks for the reply.

Its really basic stuff. A Flash file will send via POST to a PHP 
script some text. I need to insert the text in MySQL in a row which 
have an auto_increment column. I want to keep only the last 10 text, 
so I will query MySQL to get all the text, and if I have more than 10 
texts, I will delete the older ones.

Cheers
-Emmanuel
