Process CSV Into Array With Column Headings For Key

Question

I have a CSV with the first row containing the field names. Example data is...

\"Make\",\"Model\",\"Note\"
\"Chevy\",\"1500\",\"loaded\"
\"Chevy\",\"2500\",         


        

Answer 1

Try this

$csv = array_map("str_getcsv", file('file.csv', FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES));    
$header = array_shift($csv); // get header from array

foreach ($csv as $key => $value) {    
    $csv[$key] = array_combine($header, $value);
    var_dump($csv[$key]['Model']);
}

var_dump($csv);
