I have to get last insert id from a specific inserted table?.
Lets say i have this code:
INSERT INTO blahblah (test1, test 2) VALUES ('test1', 'test2');
INSERT INTO blahblah2 (test1, test 2) VALUES ('test1', 'test2');
INSERT INTO blahblah3 (test1, test 2, lastid) VALUES ('test1', 'test2', last id of blahblah);
How do i get the insert id of table blahblah in table blahblah3?
LAST_INSERT_ID() only gives you the last insert id
Regards, Simon :)
You can use LAST_INSERT_ID() function.
Try this:
INSERT INTO blahblah (test1, test2) VALUES ('test1', 'test2');
SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() INTO @blahblah;
INSERT INTO blahblah2 (test1, test2) VALUES ('test1', 'test2');
INSERT INTO blahblah3 (test1, test2, lastid) VALUES ('test1', 'test2', @blahblah);
Is this what you are looking for?
SELECT id FROM blahblah ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1
If you want to do it in a single statement use:
INSERT INTO blahblah3 (test1, test2, lastid)
VALUES ('test1', 'test2', (select MAX(id) FROM blahblah));
This way you don't need to save any variables beforehand which assures you'll get the latest ID at that exact moment.
You can use mysql_insert_id();
function to get a quick answer.
But if you are using a heavy traffic site, chances of in accurate results exist.
You can use LAST_INSERT_ID() function.
INSERT INTO blahblah (test1, test 2) VALUES ('test1', 'test2');
//this query will return id. Save it in one variable
select LAST_INSERT_ID()
In short, save the last insert id in one variable and then use it in blahblah3
you can also find last id by query in codeigniter As
$this->db->order_by('column name',"desc");
$this->db->limit(1);
$id= $this->db->get('table name');
