Question : Code retriving duplicated numbers.

I need to retrieve a an lngvisitid, lngvoucher and get the max strvoucher. Per the code below.

It works just find unless two people click the button at the same time then they both get the same strvoucher number. It also takes a long time for the code to process. Can some one please tell me how I can speed it up and also make is so the users do not get the same strvoucher number. strvoucher is not a auto increment.

Thank you

actually, this is what you need:

                       
         
           
           
             <?php 
$OverallTotal=0;
do { ?>
<?
$ItemTotal = $row_rs_orders['price'] * $row_rs_orders['quantity'];
$OverallTotal +=$ItemtTotal;
?>
  <tr>
    <td bgcolor="#E5E8ED"><?php echo $row_rs_orders['name']; ?></td>
    <td bgcolor="#E5E8ED"><?php echo $row_rs_orders['code']; ?></td>
    <td bgcolor="#E5E8ED">&pound;<?php echo number_format($row_rs_orders['price'], 2); ?></td>
    <td bgcolor="#E5E8ED"><?php echo $row_rs_orders['quantity']; ?></td>
    <td bgcolor="#E5E8ED">&pound;<?php echo number_format($ItemTotal, 2); ?></td>
  </tr>
