Below is some code to output a UTF-8 encoded CSV in a way understandable by Excel. It requires iconv instead of mbstring. header("Content-type: application/octet-stream"); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=report.xls"); // assume $tmpString contains UTF-8 encoded CSV: $tmpString = iconv ( 'UTF-8', 'UTF-16LE//IGNORE', $tmpString ); print chr(255).chr(254).$tmpString; ---- Server IP: 203.16.234.20 Probable Submitter: 203.214.70.220 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mbstring.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74750 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74750 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74750 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
