There is simple option. Create the query by hand ;)

like this:

$query = 'INSERT INTO ' . $db->quoteIdentifier('table') . ' (`col1`, `col2`) VALUES ';
$queryVals = array();
foreach ($data as $row) {
    foreach($row as &$col) {
        $col = $db->quote($col);
    }
    $queryVals[] = '(' . implode(',', $row) . ')';
}
$stmt = $db->query($query . implode(',', $queryVals));

Not all databases support this. So, there is no universal answer. But if you would tell what's you DB, we might suggest some trick... :-)

  • mysql supports this, but the problem is i don't know how to create this statement through dbmodel, instead i have to iterate through loop and insert multiple values – S L Jan 26 '11 at 09:07
