Parsing CSV files into a MySQL Table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, newbie here, go easy on me I'm learning this as I go ;)

Got a bit of teaser here.

//<?php 

mysql_connect (localhost, foouser, foologin);

mysql_select_db (footest1);

$csvfile = file("http://foo.com/foolist.csv";);
	
foreach($csvfile as $line_no => $datastring) {
	$data = explode (",", $datastring);
	$foo1 = $data[0];
	$foo2 = $data[1];
	$foo3 = $data[2];
	$foo4 = $data[3];
	$foo5 = $data[4];
	$foo6 = $data[5];
	$foo7 = $data[6];

	mysql_query ("INSERT INTO 'footable' (foo1, foo2, foo3, foo4, foo5, foo6, foo7) 
		VALUES '$foo1', '$foo2', '$foo3', '$foo4', '$foo5', '$foo6', '$foo7')");
}

//?>

The result of the above is I get nothing INSERT-ed in 'footable'. No lines of data at all. I looked in the table using phpMyAdmin and zilch.

I have however dumped the contents of each variable in the 'foreach' loop to the screen in a table and it all maps out correctly as i was in the CSV file, so the CSV file is being parsed correctly. The fault seems to be in the MySQL query I think.
Privilages have no influence - I've tried both the database's 'regular' users and also the 'root' user and it makes no odds.
I've also tried dumping the list of single variables and using '($data[0], $data[1] etc...) and that has no effect.

It's probably something glaringly obvious to an expert but as I say I'm learning as I go so any help would be great :)

Thx.
