Try to re-explain. And I want it to be formatted to something like this: Update( SET name = 'Milan Hnilicka', shooting = '63', playmaking = '61', stickhandling = '54', checking = '61', marking = '63', hitting = '60', skating = '63', endurance = '70', penalty = '66', faceoffs = '63', leadership = '63', strength = '71', potentiel = '68', consistency = '61', greed = '115',fighting = '42', click = '10', team='0', main_position='1', country='4', handed='1', birth_year='1973', birth_day='24', birth_month='6', salary='950000', contract_lenght='0', draft_year='1991', draft_round='4', drafted_by='17', rights='98', week_goals=0', week_assists='0', week_gwg='0', month_goals='0', month_assists='0', month_gwg='0', record_goals='179000', record_assists='3000', record_points='908', no_trade_switch='0', two-way_switch='0', player-team_option='0', status='1', rookie='0', considering_offer_data='0', team_offering='0', amount_time_spent_considering='0', injury='0', line8='0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0', line9='0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0', line10='0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0', goal_streak='0', point_streak='0', total_gp='0', suspended_game='0', training='0', weight='194', height='7', status_in_organization='3', best_streak_games='0', best_streak_gwg='0', best_streak_assists='0', best_streak_points='0', best_streak_goals='0', line13='-', line15='/n', drafted='drafted='drafted', line17='150080070070075095144103068062125080125', line18='1.16 (24.3.2002)', line19='1.16 (24.3.2002)', attitude='0', alternate_position='0', nhl_rights='98', injury_prone='65', overral_draft='70' Where name='$name'); I think I didnt write the correct Update code, but you get the point... I hope. And I need this to be the same thing for all the players. I guess we can do that with a while loop, no?

What do you mean? I dont understand your question

I would need them, because once the data inserted into the DataBase, I would like to once in awhile export it back to this format. So I would still need to insert these datas in the DB no?

Wow ok thanks, But wont it be long to give that for all the data I need? And also there is 3500 datas like this... Ok I will try to re-explain. This is the 1st players data. What I want is to insert: So What I want, lets say line 1 colum 1: 63, I want that to be inserted into a MYSQL table under a colum named C1 for ex, then 61 under C2 colum, and so one. For the lines I dont need: 8,9,10,13,15, 16, 17, 18, 19 I would like to add them in a colum named: line 8, line 9, etc. I dont know if its more clear now... Thanks again for your help, Ara

Ok so this is what I have: <?PHP $lines = file('players.txt'); while (!feof($lines) ) { $lineOneArray = explode(" ", $lines[1]); print_r($lineOneArray); } fclose($file_handle); ?> And this is the result: http://liguedhockeysimule.x10hosting.com/converter/texttosql.php Is there something I missed? EDIT: <?PHP $lines = file('players.txt'); $lineOneArray = explode(" ", $lines[1]); print_r($lineOneArray); fclose($lines); ?> Changed it to this, and the output: . How can I show the other lines? And How can I update a MYSQL table with it?

Oh NVM just realised the difference. So If I understand well, I replace: $file_handle = fopen("players.txt", "rb"); By this: $lines = file('myfile.txt'); And this : while (!feof($file_handle) ) { By: while (!feof($lines) ) { $parts = explode(' ', $line_of_text); By this: $lineOneArray = explode(" ", $lines[1]); And I out put it how? Thanks for your help, Ara

To abazoskib : I tried that: http://liguedhockeysimule.x10hosting.com/converter/texttosql.php To MadTechie: Thats what I have no?

Hi guys, Ok so first of all here is my problem: I would like to read a text file and then format it to a SQL type of format. So I tought, lets start it easy. What I am trying is to take a line and insert it into an array. Then output the array. Simple right? Thats what I tought until, I realised the lines dont have the same number of datas. Some has 10, some has 5. And there is also some lines that I need to split up a part and some that can stay toghter. Well, I'll show you guys the code: <?PHP $file_handle = fopen("players.txt", "rb"); while (!feof($file_handle) ) { $line_of_text = fgets($file_handle); $parts = explode(' ', $line_of_text); echo "$parts[0] $parts[1] $parts[2] $parts[3] $parts[4] $parts[5] $parts[6] $parts[7] $parts[8] $parts[9]<BR>"; } fclose($file_handle); ?> Only the first 5 gets shown. I will attach the text file that I would like to format. But here is a sample of it: This is the first player. The 3500 at the top, is just to say that there is 3500 players, but it doenst matter too much. Ok so here is the details: The first 7 lines, I need to split them apart, each numbers = different strings = different colum name for the Database. The lines 8,9 and 10 dont need it. 11 and 12 same as the first 7 ones. Dont need 13, but need 14. Dont need 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 But the line 20 need it like the first 7 ones. But I would need to insert the lines I dont need anyways, as after that I would like to export the MYSQL data back into this format. So can some one help me on doing this? I am not sure if I am clear... If I aint please dont hesistate to ask more information... Thanks for your help and Time, Ara

Hi guys, I want to read a MYSQL data and then output it as a XML file.... Easy right? Well, I reduced the coding to this simplest thing: <?php header("Content-type: text/xml"); echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>"; echo "<slide_show>"; echo "<photo>./images/DCP_0730.jpg</photo>"; echo "</slide_show>"; ?> But it still doesnt work. In Firefox I get: In IE 8 I get: I looked and looked, still cant seem to find the error.... I am pretty sure it is really a dumb mistake that I made somewher :oops: But I cant find it, I changed the code to single qutoes, back to to double.... But I guess I need to or something.... You can't imagine how stupid I feel lol Thanks for your help, Ara
