I've defined a bunch of constants for each of my tables to keep things organised, now how can I use them in my requests?
If I try something like below
$this->db->from(DBTABLE_MYTABLEB . ' m');
I get error as it tries to use DBTABLE_MYTABLES as the actual value. I remember reading in the docs you could specify a third argument to prevent data from being escape but how can I make that happen for from and db related functions that are not 'set'
