explode(",", substr($line, 1, -2));
would be even better!

Re: [PHP] Array Creation
Also, make sure you get rid of the space at the beginning of $data[1] - the
space after the comma gets in there, so either use trim() or just trim the
first character programatically ($data[1]=substr($data[1],1)).

You should make sure you don't accidentally delete some double quotes inside
the strings - maybe
explode(",",substr($line,1,strlen($line)-2));
would be a better option.
