如何同时获取最大值及其行？

Question

In 'album_head' table 'album_head_picture_id' is auto incremented primary key. I am trying to get the max of 'album_head_picture_id' and the entire row against that id. What is the sql? I tried this...

<?PHP  $maximim_id=$this->db->query('SELECT MAX(album_head_picture_id) AS 'maxid' FROM album_head')->row()->maxid;?>

and with that id, again...

<?PHP  $query = $this->db->query("
       SELECT * FROM album_head where album_head_picture_id= '.$maximim_id.'");

       return $query->result();
?>

i am trying to do that in same sql. Any Idea? thanks in advance.
