Similar to fgets() except that fgetcsv() parses the line it reads for fields in CSV format and returns an array containing the fields read.
A valid file pointer to a file successfully opened by fopen(), popen(), or fsockopen().
Must be greater than the longest line (in characters) to be found in the CSV file (allowing for trailing line-end characters). It became optional in PHP 5. Omitting this parameter (or setting it to 0 in PHP 5.1.0 and later) the maximum line length is not limited, which is slightly slower.
The optional delimiter
parameter sets the field delimiter (one character only).
The optional enclosure
parameter sets the field enclosure character (one character only).
The optional escape
parameter sets the escape character (one character only).
Returns an indexed array containing the fields read.
Note:
A blank line in a CSV file will be returned as an array comprising a single null field, and will not be treated as an error.
Note: If PHP is not properly recognizing the line endings when reading files either on or created by a Macintosh computer, enabling the auto_detect_line_endings run-time configuration option may help resolve the problem.
fgetcsv() returns NULL
if an invalid handle
is supplied or FALSE
on other errors, including end of file.
The escape
parameter was added
The length
is now optional. Default is 0, meaning no length limit.
fgetcsv()
Locale setting is taken into account by this function. If LANG is e.g. en_US.UTF-8, files in one-byte encoding are read wrong by this function.
<?php $row = 1; if (($handle = fopen("test.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) { while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) { $num = count($data); echo "<p> $num fields in line $row: <br /></p>\n"; $row++; for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) { echo $data[$c] . "<br />\n"; } } fclose($handle); } ?>
