 <p> Not every table can be put to the chart. Only tables with one, two or three columns can be visualised as a chart. Moreover the table must be in a special format for chart script to understand it.

+
+    <p> 
+        An ESRI Shapefile is actually a set of several files, where .shp file contains 
+        geometry data and .dbf file contains data related to those geometry data. 
+        To read data from .dbf file you need to have PHP compiled with the dBase extension 
+        (--enable-dbase). Otherwise only geometry data will be imported.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>To upload these set of files you can use either of the following methods:</p>
+    <ul>
+        <li>
+            <p>
+            Configure upload directory with 
+            <a href="#cfg_UploadDir" class="configrule">$cfg['UploadDir']</a>, upload both 
+            .shp and .dbf files with the same filename and chose the .shp file from the import page.
+            </p>
+        </li>
+        <li>
+            <p>
+            Create a Zip archive with .shp and .dbf files and import it. For this to work, 
+            you need to set <a href="#cfg_TempDir" class="configrule">$cfg['TempDir']</a> to a
+            place where the web server user can write (for example <tt>'./tmp'</tt>).
+            </p>
+
+            <p> To create the temporary directory on a UNIX-based system, you can do:</p>
+<pre>
+cd phpMyAdmin
+mkdir tmp
+chmod o+rwx tmp
+</pre>
+        </li>
+    </ul>
