MySQL Tutorial: LAST_INSERT_ID

Hi, I'm working my way through the MySQL Tutorial, and I'm having trouble with the Foreign Keys section. I'm using MySQL 4.1.4 gamma, and I'm wondering if this is a bug.

When I created the shirt table, using LAST_INSERT_ID() the owner field isn't incrementing correctly. I added an extra line for the first owner to see what was going on, but here's what I get:

id | style | color | owner
1 | polo | blue | 1
2 | dress | white | 1
3 | t-shirt | blue | 2
4 | polo | red | 3 * my inserted record
5 | dress | orange | 2
6 | polo | red | 5
7 | dress | blue | 6
8 | t-shirt | white | 7

Owner should be 1 or 2 for all of them according to the documentation.

Anyone else seeing this?

~~~
Michael
