I've a string with a huge mySQL query, seperated by a semi-colon and then line-break. You can't run this query staright to mySQL (and i dont want to try), so Im trying to split up the query into, say, 100 mysql commands at a time. Is it possible to split up a string every 100 semi-colons it finds?? I input this string from a text file through fopen while(fgets)? Is it easier to just read 100 lines at a time, run a query, and then read another 100 lines from the text file? TIA
