Returns the ID of the last inserted row, or the last value from a
sequence object, depending on the underlying driver. For example,
<b>PDO_PGSQL()</b> requires you to specify the name of
a sequence object for the <i><tt class="parameter">name</tt></i>
parameter.

This method may not return a meaningful or consistent result across
different PDO drivers, because the underlying database may not even
