I am trying to get the current value of a sequence using PHP3 under Apache.
I've read on the [GENERAL] list that the correct procedure is to

select currval(sequence name)

In my case this would be

$kbid = pg_exec("SELECT currval('knowledge_kbid_seq')");

But when I do this, I don't get the current sequence number. Instead I get a
number that increments by 6 each time I call. Needless to say this is
throwing the rest of my code off quite a bit. Any suggestions or solutions?
