Is there a way to get the last insert id in a table. Some kind of :
Code:
$this->db->get_last_insert_id();CI - MySQL - Last Insert ID ? - El Forum - 01-07-2013

CI has a built in function to handle this!
Code:
$this->db->insert_id();http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/database/helpers.html

However, i found out that it could be used only one time. If you want to save the value for a while put the result into a variable.
Code:
$last_insert_id = $this->db->insert_id()Or for a permanent access to the last row you can do this in a model. (e.g invoice_model)
Code:
function last_invoice()
{
$int = $this->db->count_all('invoice');
$query = $this->db->get('invoice',1,$int-1);
return $query->row()->id_invoice;
}Thanks for the help its appreciate.
