Because of your blog, I come up an idea for csv upload. I updated you code.

<?php

$filename = $_FILES['uploadFile']['name'];
$file_ext = pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$file_path = “uploads/”.$filename;

if(strtoupper($file_ext)=='CSV'){
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["uploadFile"]['tmp_name'],$file_path)){

$file1 = fopen($file_path, 'r');
// initialize header…
$ctr1 = 0;
while(($data1 = fgetcsv($file1 , 1000, “,”)) !== FALSE){
if($ctr1==0){
foreach($data1 as $v1){
$insert_headers[] = “'”. addslashes(trim($v1)) .”'”;
}
$columns = implode(',', $insert_headers);
unset($insert_headers);
$ctr1 = 1;
}
}
fclose($file1);

$file = fopen($file_path, 'r');

// initialize data…
$ctr2 = 0;
while(($data = fgetcsv($file , 1000, “,”)) !== FALSE){
foreach($data as $v){
$insert_values[] = “'”. addslashes(trim($v)) .”'”;
}

$values = implode(',', $insert_values);
unset($insert_values);

if($ctr2!=0){
$sql_query = “INSERT INTO
tbl_article_info($columns)
VALUES($values)”;
}
else{
$ctr2 = 1;
}

mysql_query($sql_query) or die(“Query Error:” . mysql_error());
}
fclose($file);

echo “success”;
}
else{
echo 'failed';
}
}
else{
echo “THE FILE IS NOT IN CSV FORMAT.”;
}
?>

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$columns = “no_ahli, no_pin, nama, no_ic_baru, no_ic_lama”;
$handle = fopen(“filename.csv”, “r”);
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, “,”)) !== FALSE) {
foreach( $data as $v ) {
$insertValues=”‘”.addslashes(trim($v)).”‘”;
}
$values=implode(‘,’,$insertValues);
$sql = “INSERT INTO `kmmb_member1` ( $columns ) VALUES ( $values )”;
mysql_query($sql) or die(‘SQL ERROR:’.mysql_error());
}
fclose($handle);
print “Import done”;
}
else
{

print “”;
print “Type file name to import:”;
print “”;
print “”;
}

When these works are done, an import of big files is very fast.
1 million lines in less then 60 seconds. The same row by row lasts 10 minutes and more.
Cheers.
