Re: external data saving

This could be done in one of several ways: - form : what you sound like you want to do seems prettey simple - why is it not doable with a form? - file upload : this seems more like what you are looking for ... use the commands in Chapter 19 (File Uploads) of the PHP manual The advantage with a form is that you can send it straight to the database...as opposed to uploading a file, which is a lot more fiddly. You have to upload the file, recover it from the temporary area, and then resumably you are going to want to parse it - which is where the effort factor can get ugly :) More specs on what you wanted would be good.
