    <p>I am currently working on an CSV Uploader project and I have it working correctly but my question is - How would I make it select (firstname, lastname, email, phone, etc) if clients CSV file is put together differently. Or would the client who is uploading the file have to have it in the order the program is made?</p> <p>Here is php code ----------------------------------------------</p> <pre><code>try { # MySQL with PDO_MYSQL $DBH = new PDO("mysql:host=$hostname;dbname=$database", $username, $password); $DBH-&gt;setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION ); } catch(PDOException $e) { echo "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't do that."; file_put_contents('PDOErrors.txt', $e-&gt;getMessage(), FILE_APPEND); } if (isset($_POST['submit'])){ $file = $_FILES['files']['tmp_name']; $handle = fopen($file , "r"); while (($fileop = fgetcsv($handle,1000,",")) !== false) { $firstname = $fileop[0]; $lastname = $fileop[1]; $email = $fileop[2]; $phone = $fileop[3]; $insertdata = $DBH-&gt;prepare("INSERT INTO csv (firtname, lastname, email, phone) VALUES ('$firstname','$lastname','$email','$phone')"); $insertdata-&gt;execute(); } if ($insetdata){ echo "Successfully Uploaded. Thank you."; } } </code></pre> <p>Thank you for your time!</p> <p>UPDATED----------------------------------------------</p> <p>New code</p> <pre><code> try { # MySQL with PDO_MYSQL $DBH = new PDO("mysql:host=$hostname;dbname=$database", $username, $password); $DBH-&gt;setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION ); } catch(PDOException $e) { echo "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't do that."; file_put_contents('PDOErrors.txt', $e-&gt;getMessage(), FILE_APPEND); } function returnBack(){ header("Location:http://pcgprotects.com/PCG/csvuploader/csvuploaderform.php?seterror=1"); exit; } if (isset($_POST['submit'])){ /*******************************GET NAME OF COLUMNS IN CSV FILE *********************************************************/ if (empty($_POST['files'])){ returnBack(); } if (empty($_POST['firstname'])){ returnBack(); } if (empty($_POST['lastname'])){ returnBack(); }if (empty($_POST['email'])){ returnBack(); } if (empty($_POST['phone'])){ returnBack(); } $file = $_FILES['files']['tmp_name']; $handle = fopen($file , "r"); $fileop = fgetcsv($handle,1000,","); $firstname_index = array_search($_POST['firstname'],$fileop); if (empty($firstname_index)){ returnBack(); } $lastname_index = array_search($_POST['lastname'],$fileop); if (empty($lastname_index)){ returnBack(); } $email_index = array_search($_POST['email'],$fileop); if (empty($email_index)){ returnBack(); } $phone_index = array_search($_POST['phone'],$fileop); if (empty($phone_index)){ returnBack(); } /***********************ASSIGN COLUMN VALUES TO ACCORDING VARIABLES AND INSERT THEN INTO CSV TABLE IN DB *************************************/ while (($fileop = fgetcsv($handle,1000,",")) !== false) { $firstname = $fileop[$firstname_index]; $lastname = $fileop[$lastname_index]; $email = $fileop[$email_index]; $phone = $fileop[$phone_index]; $insertdata = $DBH-&gt;prepare("INSERT INTO csv (firtname, lastname, email, phone) VALUES ('$firstname','$lastname','$email','$phone')"); $insertdata-&gt;execute(); } if ($insetdata){ echo "Successfully Uploaded.

Then in my form I entered those values but I got kicked back - here is my Form code -----</p> <pre><code> &lt;table width="300" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;form method="post" action="csvuploader.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td colspan="3"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CSV Uploader &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Enter Name of First Name Column &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input name="fisrtname" type="text" &gt;&lt;?php $setError=$_GET['seterror']; if($setError == 1){ echo "&lt;span class='errorMsg'&gt;Need Exact Name&lt;/span&gt;"; } ?&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Enter Name of Last Name Column &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input name="lastname" type="text" &gt;&lt;?php $setError=$_GET['seterror']; if($setError == 1){ echo "&lt;span class='errorMsg'&gt;Need Exact Name&lt;/span&gt;"; } ?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Enter Name of Email Column &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input name="email" type="text" &gt;&lt;?php $setError=$_GET['seterror']; if($setError == 1){ echo "&lt;span class='errorMsg'&gt;Need Exact Name&lt;/span&gt;"; } ?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Enter Name of Phone Number Column &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input name="phone" type="text" &gt;&lt;?php $setError=$_GET['seterror']; if($setError == 1){ echo "&lt;span class='errorMsg'&gt;Need Exact Name&lt;/span&gt;"; } ?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width="294"&gt;&lt;input type="file" name="files" /&gt;&lt;?php $setError=$_GET['seterror']; if($setError == 1){ echo "&lt;span class='errorMsg'&gt;Select a File&lt;/span&gt;"; } ?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
