Ok. I am trying to read a csv file with three strings separated by commas.
I am trying to insert them into a MySQL DB online.
MySQLdb is installed, no problems.
I think that I am having some kind of error with my csv going into the
fields and being broken apart correctly. Can someone please help? I
attached the code below, it does work with that SQL server also if you
want to try and run it. Thanks in advance ..

import MySQLdb
conn=MySQLdb.connect( host="www.freesql.org",
user="edhotchkiss",
port=3306,

db="links")
cursor = conn.cursor()
stmt = "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS links"
cursor.execute(stmt)
stmt = """CREATE TABLE links (
ID INT NOT NULL,
Name TEXT,
URL LONGTEXT,

cursor.execute(stmt)
arr=[]
inp = open ("sites1.txt","r")
#read line into array
for line in inp.readlines():
links = map(str, line.split(","))
arr.append(links)
cursor.execute ("""
INSERT INTO links (Name, URL, category)
VALUES (%s, %s, %s)""" % tuple(links[0:3])
)
cursor.close()
conn.close()
