How do I display whatever that gets submitted in a CSV File on an HTML Web Page by pulling it with php... I am kind of lost....?

You know it be nice if you can once in a while click Mark Solve on some of the threads you posted. It's just that sometimes you just double a same questions because you can't add something or can't modify it.

You need to used this function:

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetcsv.php

to pull the csv file on to the webpage.

I'm sorry, I understand that I tend to forget to hit the mark solved button... I will make a moment to add a few mark solved articles... but some of those are still open and need answering...

So, through that link... i should use this?:

<?php
$row = 1;
if (($handle = fopen("test.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
    while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
        $num = count($data);
        echo "<p> $num fields in line $row: <br /></p>\n";
        $row++;
        for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) {
            echo $data[$c] . "<br />\n";
        }
    }
    fclose($handle);
}
?>

Thanks for your response

Well... I got it to work but when I placed numbering on it... it counted oddly... It counted: 1 2 4 6 9 12 15 and so on... I am going to investigate this and come back to zthis thread...

*this...

I spelled "this" wrong...

OK, that's neat you got it working. The odd number might have to do with the cvs file. Did you put this 0; in front of all your data:

0;Posting;a
1;Whiz;s

I had this... but this could be what you mean by having a 0...

$tdcount = 0;

This is just a variable... but it may not mean much...

$tdcount = 0;

No, that's not what I meant. I'm not quite sure where you got that code? You know you post a lot of threads. It's bit hard to remember what code you post or someone post a code on your thread.

Post the code so I can see what you are doing.

Read this:

it will show an example what I mention.
