note 130328 added to function.fputcsv

As stated above, if you want to parse the csv later with fgetcsv, you should disable the escape mechanism by setting the escape parameter to empty string. Here is what can happen if you don't: <?php $a = array('xyz\\', 'qwerty'); var_dump($a); $f = fopen('test.csv', 'w'); fputcsv($f, $a); fclose($f); $f = fopen('test.csv', 'r'); $b = fgetcsv($f); fclose($f); var_dump($b); ?> Result : array(2) { [0]=> string(4) "xyz\" [1]=> string(6) "qwerty" } array(1) { [0]=> string(13) "xyz\",qwerty " } As you can see, the output of fputcsv cannot be safely parsed by fgetcsv. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 80.90.5.137 (proxied: 79.184.190.173) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/function.fputcsv.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/130328 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/130328 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/130328 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
