Hi.  I want to load a fairly large (4MB / 85k lines) cvs file into my table.  I tried using myphp admin's upload thing and it crashes and has it's own issues i don't want to mess with, i hate it.

 

so i wish to do it the old fashioned way. (with a load infile query)

 

problem is, i don't understand or know how the directory system works with mysql and webhosts.  if i put my csv file in the public_html directory, what do i need to put in for my directory(s) for my query?  i tried lots of stuff and tried using document root and etc, nothing works.

 

any light on this subject would be awesome, much appreciated.

 

(typos galore, sorry)
