Hi, i am an absolute novice and would really appreciate some help.
I am running a very simple script to upload a csv to a table in MySQL.
It is working very well, but the first function in it is to empty the table contents first like below
[php]$deleterecords = “TRUNCATE TABLE feed”; //empty the table of its current records if selected
mysql_query($deleterecords);[/php]
Entire Form
[php]<?php
include “connect.php”; //Connect to Database
$deleterecords = “TRUNCATE TABLE feed”; //empty the table of its current records if selected
mysql_query($deleterecords);
//Upload File
if (isset($_POST[‘submit’])) {
if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES[‘filename’][‘tmp_name’])) {
echo “
” . “File “. $_FILES[‘filename’][‘name’] .” uploaded successfully.” . “
”;}
//Import uploaded file to Database
$handle = fopen($_FILES['filename']['tmp_name'], "r");
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$import="INSERT into feed(ProductName,Brand,ProductURL,ImageURL) values('$data[0]','$data[1]','$data[2]','$data[3]')";
mysql_query($import) or die(mysql_error());
}
fclose($handle);
print "Import done";
//view upload form
}else {
print "Upload new csv by browsing to file and clicking on Upload<br />\n";
print "<form enctype='multipart/form-data' action='upload.php' method='post'>";
print "File name to import:<br />\n";
print "<input size='50' type='file' name='filename'><br />\n";
print "<input type='submit' name='submit' value='Upload'></form>";
}
?>[/php]
What i would like to do is add a checkbox to the TRUNCATE TABLE feed … so that the table will only be emptied if the checkbox is selected, otherwise the csv contents should be added to the table …
I hope that makes sense.
Thanks for any assistance.
