I am trying to create a script which will create a com_content category in Joomla (2.5), inserting such data into the correct mysql table isn't the problem for me, I need to make sure that the assets are correct after the creation so that the normal use of the category in joomla is correct.

I would like to do this WITHOUT using joomla libraries and scripts.

What I need is this. besides the asset table itself, and of course the category table, is there any other information I need? If not could I just find the last asset id for the last category created (highest id number) and INSERT into the two tables the next numbers?
