Handle csv file using php

Assume, I got the following content in my csv file:

"data", "data1", "data2", "data3""data", "data1", "data2", "data3""data", "data1", "data2", "data3"

You can use fgetcsv to parse a CSV file without having to worry about parsing it yourself.

example from php.net

<?php

$row = 1;
if (($handle = fopen("test.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
    while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
        $num = count($data);
        echo "
$num fields in line $row: 
\n";
        $row++;
        for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) {
            echo $data[$c] . "
\n";
        }
    }
    fclose($handle);
}


?>
