WHERE `column` = `column`

[eluser]skunkbad[/eluser]
I'm using active record, and need to query

WHERE `column_a` = `column_b`

but

$this->db->where() doesn't work. Do I have to create a custom query?

You can pass a single string to $this->db->where() and it'll work fine. So:

Code:

$this->db->where('column_a = column_b');

Well, I had to use backticks to make it work. Thanks

Code:

$where = 'product_id = `product_group`';
$this->db->where($where);
