Getting the lastest rowid from the Cart

[eluser]jonny68[/eluser]
Hi,

if i loop through:
$a = 0;
foreach ($this->cart->contents() as $items) {

echo $items['rowid'].'<br />';
$a++;
};

i get all the rowid's from the cart, but what if i want the last inserted?

By increasing $a i get the number of items, and theorically that (number-1) should be the

last..

I'm i wrong? I can't find the way to get this straight something like
$this->cart->contents($a => 'rowid') or $this->cart->contents()[$a]['rowid'] etc,

nothing seems to work..

Thanks a lot!

You can just use php's end() to get the last element of an array without having to do that looping.

Yes, end() is cool but then i have the same problem to save the nested rowid.

Like this it works fine:

$numItems = count($this->cart->contents());
$i = 0;
foreach($this->cart->contents() as $key) {
if($i+1 == $numItems) {
$saved_rowid = $key['rowid'];
}
$i++;
}

echo $saved_rowid;

Thank you for telling me about end().

Bye

If you think its more efficient to loop over the whole array just to get the last element, ok, but this seems much more efficient and compact to me

Code:

$last = end($this->cart->contents());
echo $last['rowid'];

or even

Code:

$contents = $this->cart->contents();
$last = count($contents) - 1;
echo $contents[$last]['rowid'];

Hi CroNix,

that's right!

Now i understand how it works thank to you!

Much compact an easy to read.

THANKS A LOT!
