Jason,
Why do you copy the return array into an other one before using it?
(and why rewriting code already available as native PHP functions?)
This should do the same than your code:
$fh = fopen($filename);
$fields = fgetcsv($fh);
while($line = fgetcsv($fh) !== false)
{
print json_encode(array_combine($fields,$line));
}
fclose($fh);

[Proto-Scripty] Re: CSV to Json
You can invert your {'fields': [{'field':'fname', 'col':2}, {'field':'ssn',
'col':5}]} to something like ['field0', 'field1', 'fname', 'field3',
'field4', 'ssn'] and then zip it (Enumerable#zip) with every CSV row.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: CSV to Json
Client side only.. I have something written but not sure I'm taking advantage of prototype added methods for arrays and enumerations. Basically, I'm constructing a csv from json object iterating over it's data array, and appending to CSV like: csv+=data csv+=',' csv+='\n' The above is *obviously* chopped significantly and missing the smarts around when to add , and when to add \n.. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: CSV to Json
I would use a small PHP script (assuming the first line is the field
names)
$fields = array();
$data = array();
$fh = fopen($filename);
$line = fgetcsv($fh);
foreach($line as $n)
{
$fields[] = $n;
}
while($line = fgetcsv($fh) !== false)
{
foreach($line as $key => $n)
{
$data[$fields[$key]][] = $n;
}
}
print json_encode($data);
