$c = 0;
while(($filesop = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== false)
{
$name = $filesop[0];
$email = $filesop[1];
$sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO csv (name, email) VALUES ('$name','$email')");
}
if($sql){
echo "You database has imported successfully";
}else{
echo "Sorry! There is some problem.";
}

In my case I have a database “test” and a table “csv”, csv table have three fields id, name and email. You can use your existing database and configure your query in above code and the important thing to note is that when you are making .csv file make it according to your MySQL database pattern. For example if you have name first in your query then make first column of excel sheet for name and up-to soon.
OK there is one question that how we can get the column address of excel sheet or .csv file. We are getting our data in form of an array. Then obviously we should have to treat it like an array (if you don’t know about array please read it at php.net). So it will work like this.

$filesop[number_of_column];

$filesop is our array name and number _of_column refers to our address of column of excel sheet. And array always start from 0 it means that the address of 1st column of excel sheet is 0 here.
