 * I am trying to import my WP files (new server) but am running into two problems.
   One is with the WP Admin Import where my xml file may be too large (30MB – get
   a “are you sure you want to do this” message and no way to procees). And the 
   other is in cPanel>phpMyAdmin>Import where the “go” button doesn’t go anywhere(
   missing page error).
 * I have three questions:
    1. Before I go to the trouble of splitting the XML file,
   can anyone tell me if SimpleTags tags will be included? 2. Is there another way
   of importing the whole database apart from going through phpMyAdmin>Import? 3.
   Is there a way to import tables, one at a time?
 * Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

 * I had the tech support people import the database from their end, so now the 
   tables are there at least. The site itself is blank now, when I go there, so 
   I still have a few things to figure out.
