Imagine a 'project'-table with, besides the projectdata itself, 3 fields:

- project_creator_id = the id of the person who created the project
- project_client_id = the id of the person for whom the project is done
- project_contractor_id = the id of the person who will realise the project

The project creator can either be the client or the contractor, so at least 2 id's will be the same. I want to show the projects that were NOT created by the user id (uid) in the current session (me), but where I am either the client or contractor.

So in short: how would you say 'give me the rows where either uid is project_client_id or project_contractor_id, but NOT where uid is project_creator_id'

This doesn't work:
Code:
function get_co_projects()
    {
        $this->db->select('*');
        $this->db->from('projects');
        $this->db->where('project_client_id', $this->session->userdata('uid'));
        $this->db->orwhere('project_contractor_id', $this->session->userdata('uid'));
        $this->db->where('project_creator_id !=', $this->session->userdata('uid'));

        $query = $this->db->get();

        return $query->result();
    }

It's basically the OR that screws it up.
