Right in the middle of the table of contents there is a link to the section "Working with CSV".

This code opens and reads a line into $line until there are no more lines:

<?php
  $fp = fopen('file.csv', 'r');
  while (!feof($fp)) {
    $line = fgetcsv($fp, 4096);
    echo $line; // do whatever you need here
  }
  fclose($fp);
?>

file_get() can be used as well, to load each line into an array, if you prefer to work with it like that.

Alright, i got you now. meaning i can do some skipping code to replace
echo $line; // do whatever you need here

with some code that read the string is not equal to the column name in the csv file and proceed to insert.

Thanks for your help. Really appreciated
