Script to insert the contents of a .csv file ($file in this case) into a MySQL database using more than one delimiter (so for instance you could use both ; and ,). Useful because Excel outputs CSV-files with semicolons instead of comma's. The CSV file must look like this: [tablename] [column1],[column2],[column3] etc [value1row1],[value2row1],[value3row1] etc [value1row2],[value2row2],[value3row1] etc So the value matches with the column. $data = nl2br(file_get_contents($file)); $data = split("<br />", $data); $num = count($data); for ($i = 0; $i <= $num; $i++) { $data[$i] = split("[,;]", $data[$i]); $data[$i][0] = str_replace(" ", "", $data[$i][0]); if ($i == 0) $table = $data[$i][0]; elseif ($i == 1) $column = join(', ', $data[$i]); else { $data[$i][0] = ltrim(rtrim($data[$i][0])); $values = join("', '", $data[$i]); mysql_query("INSERT INTO ".$table." (".$column.") VALUES ('".$values."')"); if (mysql_error() == '') echo $data[$i][1].' has been added to the database'; //In my CSV files the second column always contains a name else echo mysql_error(); echo '<br>'; } } ---- Server IP: 213.249.64.162 Probable Submitter: 94.208.185.227 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetcsv.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/89895 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89895 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/89895 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
