Hey guys, once again i have a php problem. I’m in the middle of a project, and i need the user to be able to browse for a text file on their computer, and each line will be entered into the database. I have no problem with mysql, but i haven’t been able to find any information on reading text files by line. If anybody could direct me to any site that has any information, well . . . i’d love you . . .
