Re: load data infile problem

You running Windows or *nix? File permissions will play a part in this, but use PHP's exec() function to execute MySQL's load data infile. The manual has a number of well annotated examples. The big problem may be that you'll be executing the command as whatever user the web server is running as. But before you start reinventing the wheel, search for "MySQL import csv PHP", or something similar, and check out the script sites referred to in the links part of the manual. This isn't a new problem and has been addressed before. HTH - Miles Thompson At 09:13 PM 1/19/2002 +0000, rop30999 wrote:
