Jan has been working on a script that allows you to import text files that were exported from Extensis Portfolio. I produce these text files not with Portfolio but of course only the format is important (I use an application which I wrote in FileMaker Pro that serves our needs to attach keywords, descriptions to files better than Portfolio does).

Maybe Jan can provide you with the import script. The workflow is as follows: first upload the images via ftp, go to the admin control panel and check for new images, then envoke the import script, tell it which things to import and the order and fire it up. For all entries in the imported file that matches an entry in the database (i.e. the image is there) the description, keywords, whatever is imported.

HTH,
Bernd

Already but to risk for mysql data
I know that already try in localhost??

My idea is the script  can inport data from viewer program like ACDSEE
for the description or from text file.

it would be great if somebody writes a script that imports info from text file. If I knew enough php I would try but I dont think I know enough. Someting that imports from the descript.ion file created by acdsee is a good idea too.
