PHP converting mysql to excel - php

Question

Working on PHP converting to excel, but having problems in the excel file where it doesn't add each row in its own cell. Here is how it looks: https://www.dropbox.com/s/64lz7lqy8z7x72j/export.csv
It writes it on the first cell and it looks like it has written to all of the cell.
And here is the PHP code:
<?php
$conn = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('chart', $conn) or die(mysql_error($conn));
$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM chartgoogle', $conn) or die(mysql_error($conn));
header('Content-Type: text/csv'); // tell the browser to treat file as CSV
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename=export.csv'); // tell browser to download a file in user's system with name export.csv
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); // Get the column names
if ($row) {
outputcsv(array_keys($row)); // It wil pass column names to outputcsv function
}
while ($row) {
outputcsv($row); // loop is used to fetch all the rows from table and pass them to outputcsv func
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
}
function outputcsv($fields) {
$separator = '';
foreach ($fields as $field) {
echo $separator . $field;
$separator = ','; // Separate values with a comma
}
echo "\r\n"; //Give a carriage return and new line space after each record
}
?>

Answer 1

Try this :
function outputcsv($fields) {
$csv = '';
foreach ($fields as $field) {
$csv .= '"' . $field . '",';
}
$csv .= "\r\n"; //Give a carriage return and new line space after each record
echo $csv;
}
Take a look at the double quotes placed before and after the field. CSV files usually use double quotes as closures. They call it text qualifier.
