geldd001 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) Hello, As en newbie in php i am looking to a solution for the creation of an output file with semicolon seperations in it. comma delimitied is no option because the file contains values with a comma. $myFile = "data.txt"; $data1 = "".$text1.",".$text2.",".$text3.PHP_EOL; $data2 = "".$text4.",".$text5.",".$text6; $fp = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die('Could not open file!'); fwrite($fp, "$data1"."$data2") or die('Could not write to file'); fclose($fp); The result is: test1,test2,test3 test4,test5,test6 I Would like to have: test1;test2;test3 test4;test5;test6 Thanks in advance Edited May 26, 2013 by geldd001 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278397-semicolon-in-output/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 ... Have you even tried to solve this yourself? I don't understand how you cannot see the answer.

geldd001 Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Yes I tried. As I mentioned I am a newbie and no guru. One off the value has a vlaue with a comma in it. This is not in my sample. If you just change all the , for a ; than it ends up with more data fields. If the solution is that simple. Please tell.

xenLiam Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 ... You change "," to ";" in $data1 and $data2. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278397-semicolon-in-output/#findComment-1432346 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution geldd001 Posted May 26, 2013 Author Solution Share Posted May 26, 2013 Solved! I tried that first but probably I made a mistake somewhere: Changed: $data1 = "".$text1.",".$text2.",".$text3.PHP_EOL; $data2 = "".$text4.",".$text5.",".$text6; In: $data1 = "".$text1.";".$text2.";".$text3.PHP_EOL; $data2 = "".$text4.";".$text5.";".$text6; Thanks for support Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278397-semicolon-in-output/#findComment-1432358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
