str_getcsv
Description
The str_getcsv of String for PHP parse a CSV string into an array.
Syntax
str_getcsv ( string $input [, string $delimiter = "," [, string $enclosure = '"' [, string $escape = "\\" ]]] ) : array
Parameters
input
The string to parse.
delimiter
Set the field delimiter (one character only).
enclosure
Set the field enclosure character (one character only).
escape
Set the escape character (at most one character). Defaults as a backslash (\). An empty string ("") disables the proprietary escape mechanism.
Note: Usually an enclosure character is escaped inside a field by doubling it; however, the escape character can be used as an alternative. So for the default parameter values "" and \" have the same meaning. Other than allowing to escape the enclosure character the escape character has no special meaning; it isn't even meant to escape itself.
Return
Returns an indexed array containing the fields read.
