Often when outputting csv, I usually do something like this:
<?php
$fp = fopen('php://output', 'w') or die('Could not open stream');
foreach ($data as $row) {
// Assumes that $row will be an array.
// Manipulate the data in $row if necessary.
fputcsv($fp, $row);
}
?>
So far, it has worked pretty well and is much faster than any other
way I have found to output the CSV data by iterating through the
arrays manually.
