function escape_csv_value($value) {
$value = str_replace('"', '""', $value); // First off escape all " and make them ""
if(preg_match('/,/', $value) or preg_match("/\n/", $value) or preg_match('/"/', $value)) { // Check if I have any commas or new lines
return '"'.$value.'"'; // If I have new lines or commas escape them
} else {
return $value; // If no new lines or commas just return the value
}
}
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM article
WHERE idArticle in ($ww) ORDER BY idArticle DESC"); // Start our query of the database
$numberFields = mysql_num_fields($sql) or die('MySql Error' . mysql_error());; // Find out how many fields we are fetching
if($numberFields) { // Check if we need to output anything
for($i=0; $i<$numberFields; $i++) {
$keys[] = mysql_field_name($sql, $i); // Create array of the names for the loop of data below
$col_head[] = escape_csv_value(mysql_field_name($sql, $i)); // Create and escape the headers for each column, this is the field name in the database
}
$col_headers = join(',', $col_head)."\n"; // Make our first row in the CSV
$data = '';
while($info = mysql_fetch_object($sql)) {
foreach($keys as $fieldName) { // Loop through the array of headers as we fetch the data
$row[] = escape_csv_value($info->$fieldName);
} // End loop
$data .= join(',', $row)."\n"; // Create a new row of data and append it to the last row
$row = ''; // Clear the contents of the $row variable to start a new row
}
// Start our output of the CSV
/*header("Content-type: application/x-msdownload");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=log.csv");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Expires: 0");*/
echo $col_headers.$data;
} else {
// Nothing needed to be output. Put an error message here or something.
echo 'No data available for this CSV.';
}

OK. First you have to Save the CSV file. If you set headers as you mentioned the file will be automatically downloaded. Please read this article on this.

Once you create your CSV file you can email it using PHP mail function. If you need some library just check this out. It's easy to implement.
