CodeIgniter - continue on SQL error?

Question

Basically I have a table with a couple of columns marked Unique. I have a script that dumps a bunch of values into the table with a command like this:

$this-         


        

Answer 1

Yeah, took me a while too and annoyed the hell out of me:

$db['default']['db_debug'] = FALSE;

... in config/database.php - disables the error page.

After a query ran, use this to check for an error:

if (!empty($this->db->_error_message())) {
    echo "FAIL";
}
