I need to convert a web link so I can upload it into the database as a SQL dump.

Here's the link:

<a href="http://www.bootleghollow.com">Bootleg Hollow</a><br>


I know the format needs to look like this:

INSERT INTO `nuke_links_links` VALUES (1, 1, 0, 'Bootleg Hollow', 'http://www.bootleghollow.com', 'Bootleg Hollow', '2005-01-23 18:28:49', '', '', 0, '', '0.0000', 0, 0);


I just don't know how to change them around. I need to make sure the auto increment field updates properly, the date and time don't matter, because there are already different links in there. Thanks in advance.

I have no clue what you mean. For the auto increment make the value NULL


INSERT INTO `nuke_links_links` VALUES (NULL, 1, 0, 'Bootleg Hollow', 'http://www.bootleghollow.com', 'Bootleg Hollow', '2005-01-23 18:28:49', '', '', 0, '', '0.0000', 0, 0);

Sorry to sound so vague, but I finally figured it out. What I had was around 6000 web links and I wanted to be able to convert them to a database update so I wouldn't have to input them all by hand.

Using excel and a little find and replace I got them all added in about an hour.

The blank for the auto_increment is what I was looking for.
