ok, then. how "smart" is to do something like this? what's a bad side?
Your memory will runaway and your script could potentially take over the server and slow everything down. Just like any other script could.

Script works fine while I tested on csv files up to 200 records. And, when I tried to upload REAL data I got this. PHP: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted ... On google I found as a solution to put ini_set("memory_limit","12M"); on the top of the script, except allowed memory size wasn't 8m then 12m bytes. I tried with 16M and it worked :) My question is how "far" I can go with increasing? Where is "the limit"? Why is not 24M as default in php.ini? Thanks! -afanif you set the memory_limit to 0, then the script has unlimited memory to its disposal.
Actually you need to set it to -1. http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
