PHP CSV string to array

Question

I\'m trying to parse a CSV string to an array in PHP. The CSV string has the following attributes:

Delimiter: ,
Encl         


        

Answer 1

Do this:

$csvData = file_get_contents($fileName);
$lines = explode(PHP_EOL, $csvData);
$array = array();
foreach ($lines as $line) {
    $array[] = str_getcsv($line);
}
print_r($array);

It will give you an output like this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => 12345
            [1] => Computers
            [2] => Acer
            [3] => 4
            [4] => Varta
            [5] => 5.93
            [6] => 1
            [7] => 0.04
            [8] => 27-05-2013
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [0] => 12346
            [1] => Computers
            [2] => Acer
            [3] => 5
            [4] => Decra
            [5] => 5.94
            [6] => 1
            [7] => 0.04
            [8] => 27-05-2013
        )

)

I hope this can be of some help.
