i think something called WSDL might solve it, a web service

I do not need a direct access, but some way to send inserts. If a php front end receive and parse the information, it is fine with me. I heard of an method called SOAP, but I do not know how to use it.

Webhotel = webhost, I guess that i a more common expression in europe. However, I found this site that have some kind of solution http://www.richtsoft.com/mysql_28_libmywitch.html I need a similar solution.

This db is located at a webhotel. I was thinking of upload a file that will be parsed by php, and then use the values to be inserted to the mysql db. I will not try to access the db directly...

Hi! I have an application that must do some inserts in a mysql db. This db is behind a firewall, and only port 80 is available. My first thougt is to use xml or csv, and in some way parse that using php. How can this be done? I can not use a web page with an send button, this has to be more or less automatic. I am brand new to php, so if possible give me example. Thanks in advance.
