Newer PHP versions handle cvs files slightly different than older versions. "Max Mustermann"|"Muster Road 34b"|"Berlin" |"Germany" "Sophie Master" |"Riverstreet" |"Washington"|"USA" The extra spaces behind a few fields in the example (which are useful, when you manually manage a small csv database to align the columns) were ignored by fgetcsv from PHP 4.3. With the new 4.4.1 release they get appended to the string, so you end up with "Riverstreet " instead the expected "Riverstreet". Easy workaround is to just trim all fields after reading them in. while ( $data = fgetcsv($database, 32768, "|") ) { $i = 0; while(isset($data[$i])) { $data[$i] = rtrim($data[$i]); $i++; } .... } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetcsv.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+58542 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58542&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+58542&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
