load oldest item based on insdate then update the insdate to now - load_latest_single_update

i keep finding these functions that i wrote ages ago and forgot about so ill list them here so maybe i can remember them.

I think this one was to loop through items, so it grabs the oldest item and then updates the insdate to now, so might be good for cycling through items depending on their insdate. 

PHP

// Load and Update Insdate or Processed Date
    // load oldest item based on insdate then update the insdate to now.
    public function load_latest_single_update() {
        $out = "";
        $db_table_name = $this->db->escapeString($this->db_table_name);
        //$uid = $this->db->escapeString($uid);
        $sql = "select * from $db_table_name order by insdate asc limit 1";
        $result = $this->db->query($sql);
        while($row = $result->fetchArray()) {
            $this->status = "Item Loaded";
            // auto load all items from the $load_array
            foreach($this->load_array as $load_title) {
                $this->$load_title = $row[$load_title];
            }
            $this->loaded = true;

            // set new insdate for loop
            $new_insdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
            $this->insdate = $new_insdate;
            $this->update();

            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
