Answer 1

Some sample queries in Codeigniter
class Names extends Model {
function addRecord($yourname) {
$this->db->set("name", $yourname);
$this->db->insert("names");
return $this->db->_error_number(); // return the error occurred in last query
}
function updateRecord($yourname) {
$this->db->set("name", $yourname);
$this->db->update("names");
}
function deleteRecord($yourname) {
$this->db->where("name", $yourname);
$this->db->delete("names");
}
function selectRecord($yourname) {
$this->db->select("name, name_id");
$this->db->from("names");
$this->db->where("name", $yourname);
$query = $this->db->get();
return $this->db->result();
}
function selectAll() {
$this->db->select("name");
$this->db->from("names");
return $this->db->get();
}
}

A sample controller
class names_controller extends Controller {
function addPerson() {
$this->load->Model("Names");
$name = $this->input->post("name"); // get the data from a form submit
$name = $this->xss->clean();
$error = $this->Names->addRecord($name);
if(!$error) {
$results = $this->Names->selectAll();
$data['names'] = $results->result();
$this->load->view("show_names", $data);
} else {
$this->load->view("error");
}
}
}

You can use this as an example
class Crud extends Model {
// selecting records by specifying the column field
function select()
{
// use $this->db->select('*') if you want to select all the records
$this->db->select('title, content, date');
// use $this->db->where('id', 1) if you want to specify what row to be fetched
$q = $this->db->get('mytable');
// to get the result
$data = array();
// for me its better to check if there are records that are fetched
if($q->num_rows() > 0) {
// by doing this it means you are returning array of records
foreach($q->result_array() as $row) {
$data[] = $row;
}
// if your expecting only one record will be fetched from the table
// use $row = $q->row();
// then return $row;
}
return $data;
}
// to add record
function add()
{
$data = array(
'title' => 'My title' ,
'name' => 'My Name' ,
'date' => 'My date'
);
$this->db->insert('mytable', $data);
}
// to update record
function update()
{
$data = array(
'title' => $title,
'name' => $name,
'date' => $date
);
$this->db->where('id', 1);
$this->db->update('mytable', $data);
}
// to delete a record
function delete()
{
$this->db->where('id', 1);
$this->db->delete('mytable');
}
}
Some of this are from codeigniter userguide.
To view the records,
If return data is array of records,
foreach($data as $row)
{
echo $row['title'] . "<br />";
}
If the return data is an object (by using $q->row),
echo $data->title;
This is just a few examples or CRUD in Codeigniter. Visit the codeigniter userguide.
