As far as I can tell, fgetcsv() will only read a file from disk: <?php // from the manual $row = 1; $handle = fopen ("test.csv","r"); while ($data = fgetcsv ($handle, 1000, ",")) { $num = count ($data); print "<p> $num fields in line $row: <br>\n"; $row++; for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) { print $data[$c] . "<br>\n"; } } fclose ($handle); ?> If you are instead using a socket connection to receive the file in a stream from the client, you could assign it to a string variable, and use explode(). These are fairly uncharted territories for me, so others will likely have better answers. JM -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
