Function: fputcsv

(PHP 5)

fputcsv --  Format line as CSV and write to file pointer

Description

int fputcsv ( resource handle [, array fields [, string delimiter [, string enclosure]]] )

fputcsv() formats a line (passed as a fields array) as CSV and write it to the specified file handle . Returns the length of the written string, or FALSE on failure.

The optional delimiter parameter sets the field delimiter (one character only). Defaults as a comma: , .

The optional enclosure parameter sets the field enclosure (one character only) and defaults to a double quotation mark: " .

Example 1. fputcsv() example

<?php

$list = array (
    'aaa,bbb,ccc,dddd',
    '123,456,789',
    '"aaa","bbb"'
);

$fp = fopen('file.csv', 'w');

foreach ($list as $line) {
    fputcsv($fp, split(',', $line));
}

fclose($fp);
?>

Note: If you are having problems with PHP not recognizing the line endings when reading files either on or created by a Macintosh computer, you might want to enable the auto_detect_line_endings run-time configuration option.
