I have an articles website in PHP/MySQL. What I want to allow someone to do is to upload a CSV file and have that appear as a table within the article itself. I want to avoid doing a CREATE table every time as I could easily end up with thousands of tables.
Thoughts on the best way to store table information like this efficiently and permanently?
Unless you’re going to want to manipulate the data later on, it would probably be much easier just to convert the CSV file contents to a HTML table and store it as part of the article html. A simple search for csv to html table returns many, many prewritten functions, some in php; check them out.
