Mysql & other databases - Id question
Hi,

If I delete users from my database I lose their id number. For example: I have 2 users their id is 1 and 2. If i delete the second users and a new user registers at my site his id number won't be 2 but 3, whereas i only have 2 users.

It's not a big deal, but I'm curious if there is any way to optimize the tables or something and clear those "gaps"?

Thank you
