Note Submitter: c dot greenNOSP at Mits dot uq dot edu dot au ---- Quoting csv is pretty simple, and there are two steps..I note in previous comments only the second step has been explained. First fields with double quotes need to double up the quotes, ie _He said "Timmy"..._ should become _He said ""Timmy""..._ Secondly as mentioned above, fields with commas need double quotes. Here is a simple function to achieve this, that I pass to array walk, if you want to use it somewhere else, prob get rid of reference and return the value. <?php function check_csv_field_ref(&$item) { $item = str_replace('"', '""', $item); if (strpos($item, ",") !== FALSE) { $item = '"' . $item . '"'; } } ?>
