Pass CSV file via form

[gigantorTRON]

I'm trying to pass a cvs file as data to a php script that then updates based on the data passed...

 

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="process_user_batch.php" method="post">

                                <td>File Path:</td>
                                <td><input type="file" name="uploadfile"></td>

                                <td><input type="submit" value="Process User Batch File"></td>

 

However, for some reason I cannot $_POST the data and retrieve it in my script. This is the first time I've tried to pass text file data via a form. Is there a trick I'm missing??

 

Thanks.

upload or multipart is not using post it uses file?

print_r($_FILES);

Takes a csv file, flips it around into an associative array and then inserts into a db. Take a look and learn or just change what you want and call it yours.. either way it's been useful as hell to me so enjoy.
