About the auto increment I meant the mysql column property AI.
About undo:
In that case if you don't save your sessions to table and the session is
lost it's impossible to undo.
Usually undo implemented with the state pattern.
But in your case , I'll recommend keeping the initial data locally or to
undo table that will hold update statements.
1. undo table:
table_name
row_id
update_statement
2.Before editing a table1 create an update statement for each row and insert
it to the update table.
insert into undo ('table1',1,'update table table1 set col1= 'old_val', ....
where id = 1' );
3.update the table1
4. undo
a) select id from table 1 where id not in (select row_id from undo where
table_name = 'table1' )
delete all the rows you get, these are all new rows.
b) run all update statements from undo table
If you get an error change the update statement to insert
statement, the user probably delete this row.
5. delete from undo where table_name = 'table1';
If you add user id to this process each user will be able to undo only his
changes.
I think its better to implement it with before update, after insert and
before delete mysql triggers.
This way you save only changed rows.
Its just a sketch so don't take it as it is, think it over
