I have these files generated by a perl script, called something.hwd.

Format of each file is the title separated by a pipe symbol and then the html of the article. Example:

This is the title | Some html about the article goes here

Does anyone know how to mass import about 500 of these files into MySQL as records in a single table? I was going to write a script that would grab the date and time stamp of each file and then make the file format like this

2006-06-06 | Title | The HTML

I almost had it working but some records were skipped, I was using mysql's import command.

Anyway, if you can't figure it out, no problem. The client is willing to start with a fresh website.
