OldWest Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I'm not sure of your experience level with php, but my first suggestion would be: fopen(); You can grab the file with this function. And read the file with function: fgets() You probably want to read the fgets() result into an array as well like: arrayName[] = fgets()... This should get you started. You will certainly need to experiment some and determine a delimter for parcing the data - most likely preg_match() could help you with the main field names etc.. Good luck!
