Comment on Export to CSV, PHP class by Rick Hurst

Thanks for the CSV class – just what I was looking for! There is a slight bug in save() – currently it sets the filename to the date even if you do provide a filename. I changed :-

if(!is_null($file_name)) $file_name = date(‘Y-m-d’);

if(is_null($file_name)) $file_name = date(‘Y-m-d’);

cheers

Rick

I've tried this out and I had a few comments. I would recommend not relying on the header field names for the columns for the data because in the event that you want the headers to be different, you're stuck. The loop that you have appending all of the headers to the $csv var could easily be replaced by a implode function ($csv = implode(',', $columns)."\n";). This also solves the problem where you had a comma at the end of the header row. This same extra comma is present in the data building loops. The double-quote escaping function depends on a comma being present in the field data, which may create problems when quotes are used without any commas. All of this can essentially be broken down into a very small build function:


public static function build($columns, $data){
	$csv = implode(',', $columns)."\n";
	foreach($data as $row){
		foreach($row as $key => $cell){
			$row[$key] = '"'.str_replace('"', '\"', $cell).'"';
		}
		$csv .= implode(',',$row);
	}
	return $csv;
}

Pure CSS Experiments…

This collection started due to a post on the Web Help Forum, where one of its members shared her creation of a css based keyboard. I have personally only used css for its intended purpose of styling a website and have never really experimented with it …

Ah ok. If you use mysql_fetch_row then this would probably be best:

/**
 * @param array of column headings
 * @return csv
 **/
public function set_headings($columns)
{
	$csv = '';
 
	foreach($columns as $heading) 
	{
		$csv .= $heading.','; 
	}
	$csv .= "\n";
}
 
/**
 * @param single row from db
 * @return csv
 **/
public function insert_row($row)
{
	foreach ($row as $item)
	{
		$csv .= $item.","; 
	}
 
	return $csv;
}

That way you can set the headings and then add as many rows as you like one at a time after that.
