Create CSV from array in PHP

Question

Hello I have an array in PHP that looks like the following :

Array
(
    [0] => 20140723,8,156.62,LTD.
20140418-23,16-4010061201,936-438-2501,Y,23,20140418,V849,10.00
20140418-29,16-4010091102,936-438-2501,Y,29,20140418,V849,2.00
0,16-4010091102,936-436-0524,works.com,Y,0,20140723,0,0
0,16-4010061201,936-438-2501,waterw.com,Y,0,20140723,0,0
0,16-4010091102,936-438-2501,waterworks.com,Y,0,20140723,0,0
    [1] => 140723-1548.csv
)

What I would like to do is to create a csv file that has as content the first index of the array above and as title the second array index. I used the following function :

function createCSV($Myarray, $filename){
    $fp = fopen($filename, "w");
    fputcsv($fp, array($Myarray)); 
    fclose($fp);  
}

and I called it like that :

createCSV($Myarray[0], $Myarray[1]);//$Myarray is the array above

the problem I have is that the first cell in the csv output has all the data from the first index of the array, what I would like is to have each first index array line in a row in the csv.

Thanks

use the following code

 function createCSV($Myarray, $filename){
    $fp = fopen($filename, "w");
    fputcsv($fp, split(',',$Myarray)); 
    fclose($fp);  
 }

or simply

function createCSV($Myarray, $filename){
    $fp = fopen($filename, "w");
    fputs($fp, $Myarray); 
    fclose($fp);  
 }

explaination:

fputcsv creates one cell in the csv for corresponding array elements irrespective of the data in he array. in your case you are just passing one array element with comma seperated string as value. fputcsv is behaving correctly to make only a single csv column. so either user fput or split the data in multiple array elements
