i hadnt looked at your code before...thought you where running a query to get the next auto increment

now that i looked at it, its does the same as the method i use
just add $newuserid in the template and done. no need for any hacks, plugins

the only thing that makes it not perfect is - if you prune, lets say, the last 5 members that registered
it will be 5 members off

i suppose, the way to make it be 100% accurate is to run a query to get the next auto increment and subtract one
