benjaminbeazy Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I'm trying to finish off a user registration system but when I do the MySQL inserts on as many as 3 different tables, I need a failsafe where it only inserts into all 3 and if 1 fails not to insert anything in any of them. For example: query 1 worked query 2 worked query 3 failed so remove inserted rows from all 3 queries not sure, I would like it if there's a way to not insert anything without it first making sure all 3 will work any suggestions?? p.s. also not sure if this should be in mysql or php help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btherl Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Unfortunately there is not, using the default myisam tables. Unless you switch to another table format which supports transactions, the best you can do is to clean up afterwards when something goes wrong. http://dev.mysql.com/books/mysqlpress/mysql-tutorial/ch10.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Depends what you means by "failed"... how can an insert "fail" in your case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
