RE: [PHP-DB] Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
Error found when testing the code below:
Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in
apache/htdocs/speeddials.php on line 11
Line 11 is: while ($record_set_array = each($result_set)) {
What did I do wrong?
Thanks

I've heard or read about the headers somewhere but right now I sure could
use pointing in the direction of a step-by-step tutorial for extracting my
data into a CSV file and, of course, setting up the PHP file to handle it
correctly.
Thanks

It's something to do with the header in the html page.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
Importance: High
Hi,
I have a table with 1,008 columns in it and at it's peak it has up to 500
rows of data.
I want to enable my client to click on a link and the next thing they are
prompted with is 'Save or Open' (the CSV file).
The data will be compiled into a comma delimited CSV file but rather than
be
printed to the screen it would be best if the browser popped up asking
where
to save the 'filename.csv' file to. Once saved, the file can be opened in
Excel for analysis.
Where do I start to do this?
Thanks
Martin

RE: [PHP-DB] Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
do a var_dump($result_set) to see what $result_set contains (if it's
actually and array.
(did you implement the code given as is? if not AND you have put line-11
in a function and $result_set as a global variable then you need to
define $result_set as a global inside the function.)

Because $result_set is a resource id. Refer to the examples in the manual on
how to get results from a db.
