[thelist] CSV+PHP

[Jay Blanchard]

[snip]
I can get the CSV file to read in (fgetcsv) and print it's entire contents
into a table, however, I want it only to print out the record that matches a
variable set in a preceeding form.

So, when a custmer enters model # ABC, I want PHP to run through the
contents of the CSV file (300 records) and search for the row that contains
model # ABC. If found, only that row will print.

Into a table (database?)? or an array? If it is in a table then you can
issue an SQL query. If not you are going to have to loop through your array
and check the values each time. (pseudo-code)

for($i=1, $i<$number_of_rows, $i++){
   if($csv_row == $search_term){
      print($csv_row);
      exit();
   }
}

HTH!
