It does what I want, but I worry 4096 may not be big enough. Possible?

4096 is the number of bytes fgets() will get, but the fgets()
call is inside a while loop which keeps running until the 'filepointer'
(as denoted by the handle $dataFile) in question has reached the end of the
given file. so if 4096 is not big enough the loop merely grabs another 4096
bytes until its grabbed it all.

so actually you have a handy bit of code which will allow you to 'eat' through
massive files without the requirement of being able to store the
whole file in memory.

Is there a way to detect the filesize and insert a value for 4096?

filesize()

$buffer = fgets($dataFile, $filesize);
Is this what it is for?

<?php
#http://ca3.php.net/fopen
$filename = "/var/www/html2/assets/about.htm" ;
$dataFile = fopen( $filename, "r" ) ;
  while (!feof($dataFile))
  {
      $buffer = fgets($dataFile, 4096);
      echo $buffer;
  }
$sql = "insert into table ... $buffer";
?>
