I have a Table structure as id, trackid, table_name, operation, oldvalue, newvalue, field, changedonetime
Now if I have 3 rows for the same "trackid" same "field", then how can i select the latest out of the three?
i.e. for e.g.:
id = 100 trackid = 152 table_name = jos_menu operation= UPDATE oldvalue = IPL newvalue = IPLcccc field = name live = 0 changedonetime = 2010-04-30 17:54:39
and
id = 101 trackid = 152 table_name = jos_menu operation= UPDATE oldvalue = IPLcccc newvalue = IPL2222 field = name live = 0 changedonetime = 2010-04-30 18:54:39
As u can see above the secind entry is the latest change, Now what query I shoud use to get the only one and Latest row out of many such rows...
UPDATED
$distupdqry = "select DISTINCT trackid,table_name from jos_audittrail where live = 0 AND operation = 'UPDATE'";
$disupdsel = mysql_query($distupdqry);
$t_ids = array();
$t_table = array();
while($row3 = mysql_fetch_array($disupdsel))
{
$t_ids[] = $row3['trackid'];
$t_table[] = $row3['table_name'];
//$t_table[] = $row3['table_name'];
}
//echo "<pre>";print_r($t_table);echo "<pre>";
//exit;
for($n=0;$n<count($t_ids);$n++)
{
$qupd = "SELECT * FROM jos_audittrail WHERE operation = 'UPDATE' AND trackid=$t_ids[$n] order by changedone DESC ";
$seletupdaudit = mysql_query($qupd);
$row4 = array();
$audit3 = array();
while($row4 = mysql_fetch_array($seletupdaudit))
{
$audit3[] = $row4;
}
$updatefield = '';
for($j=0;$j<count($audit3);$j++)
{
if($j == 0)
{
if($audit3[$j]['operation'] == "UPDATE")
{
//$insqry .= $audit2[$i]['operation']." ";
//echo "<br>";
$updatefield .= "UPDATE `".$audit3[$j]['table_name']."` SET ";
}
}
if($audit3[$j]['operation'] == "UPDATE")
{
$updatefield .= $audit3[$j]['field']." = '".$audit3[$j]['newvalue']."', ";
}
}
/*echo "<pre>";
print_r($audit3);
exit;*/
$primarykey = "SHOW INDEXES FROM `".$t_table[$n]."` WHERE Key_name = 'PRIMARY'";
$prime = mysql_query($primarykey);
$pkey = mysql_fetch_array($prime);
$updatefield .= "]";
echo $updatefield = str_replace(", ]"," WHERE ".$pkey['Column_name']." = '".$t_ids[$n]."'",$updatefield);
}
Here I am creating the Update query by fetching the records from the initially described table which is here mentioned as audittrail table... please go throught the code.. and see how can i make the required change i need finally..
