Question

what is the optimal way for me to insert and array of 1000 lines and 10 columns each into a mysql table below is how i display it so it would be a similar construct but i need some directions

foreach ($stack as $val) {
    print "<tr>\n";
    foreach ($val as $no) {
       print " <td>$no</td>\n";}
 print "</tr>\n"; 
}

You can insert multiple rows with a single insert as follows :

INSERT INTO tbl_name (a,b,c) VALUES(1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8,9);

look at implode() to create the values string from your array
