    <p>Sure, you can execute a command like:</p> <pre><code>CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test1` ( ... ); </code></pre> <p>To get your table creation query, issue this command after you've already created it in SQL:</p> <pre><code>SHOW CREATE TABLE `test1`; </code></pre> <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p> <p>Note that you don't have to create the table in SQL directly, but since you already have, issuing the above command will give you exactly what you need to include in PHP to have it create the table on a future installation should the table not exist.</p> <p>Note also that as @Jeremy suggests, you don't have to "roll your own" code to import a data file to a table. Once you've created the table, you can use <code>LOAD DATA INFILE...</code> to populate the table.</p> <p><strong>Edit 2:</strong></p> <p>Here is an example based on your comment:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php // Connect to the database server $connection = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'bonzo123'); if (!$connection) die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); // Create database gameDB if (mysql_query('create database gameDB', $connection)) { echo "Database gameDB created successfully.\n"; } else { echo 'Error creating database: ' . mysql_error() . "\n:"; } // select which database to use mysql_select_db('gameDB', $connection); // create table test1 if it doesn't already exist mysql_query('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test1 ( v1 varchar(100), v2 varchar(100), v3 varchar(100), v4 varchar(100), v5 varchar(100), v6 varchar(100), v7 varchar(100), v8 varchar(100), v9 varchar(100), v10 varchar(100)', $connection); ?&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COThanks for the reply. If I do this do I still have to create the table in SQL first?

    2. CONo, you just need create permissions for your login. Since you're using 'root' that should be no problem.

CO<?php $connection = mysql_connect('localhost','root','bonzo123'); mysql_query('create database gameDB'); mysql_select_db('gameDB'); $mysql_query('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test1(v1 varchar(100),v2 varchar(100),v3 varchar(100),v4 varchar(100),v5 varchar(100),v6 varchar(100),v7 varchar(100),v8 varchar(100),v9 varchar(100),v10 varchar(100),$ $useDB = mysql_query('USE gamedata'); ?> Something like that?

Querying!

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
