下面是一个使用PDO并包含列标题的完整工作示例:

$query = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM test WHERE id=?');
$query->execute(array($id));    
$results = $query->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
download_csv_results($results, 'test.csv'); 
exit();


function download_csv_results($results, $name)
{            
    header('Content-Type: text/csv');
    header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='. $name);
    header('Pragma: no-cache');
    header("Expires: 0");

    $outstream = fopen("php://output", "wb");    
    fputcsv($outstream, array_keys($results[0]));

    foreach($results as $result)
    {
        fputcsv($outstream, $result);
    }

    fclose($outstream);
}

您可以使用fputcsv函数简单地将数据写入CSV。让我们看看下面的例子。将列表数组写入CSV文件

$list[] = array("Cars", "Planes", "Ships");
$list[] = array("Car's2", "Planes2", "Ships2");
//define headers for CSV 
header('Content-Type: text/csv; charset=utf-8');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file_name.csv');
//write data into CSV
$fp = fopen('php://output', 'wb');
//convert data to UTF-8 
fprintf($fp, chr(0xEF).chr(0xBB).chr(0xBF));
foreach ($list as $line) {
    fputcsv($fp, $line);
}
fclose($fp);

首先将data作为String，以逗号作为分隔符(用“，”分隔)。就像这样

$CSV_string="No,Date,Email,Sender Name,Sender Email \n"; //making string, So "\n" is used for newLine

$rand = rand(1,50); //Make a random int number between 1 to 50.
$file ="export/export".$rand.".csv"; //For avoiding cache in the client and on the server 
                                     //side it is recommended that the file name be different.

file_put_contents($file,$CSV_string);

/* Or try this code if $CSV_string is an array
    fh =fopen($file, 'w');
    fputcsv($fh , $CSV_string , ","  , "\n" ); // "," is delimiter // "\n" is new line.
    fclose($fh);
*/

我知道这个帖子有点老了，但作为将来的参考，以及像我这样的新手:

这里的其他人都解释了如何创建CSV，但忽略了问题的基本部分:如何链接。为了链接到CSV-file的下载，只需链接到.php-file，该文件将响应为. CSV-file。PHP头文件可以做到这一点。这可以实现一些很酷的东西，比如向查询字符串中添加变量并自定义输出:

<a href="my_csv_creator.php?user=23&amp;othervariable=true">Get CSV</a>

my_csv_creator.php可以使用查询字符串中给出的变量，例如使用不同的或自定义的数据库查询，更改CSV的列，个性化文件名等，例如:

User_John_Doe_10_Dec_11.csv

最简单的方法是使用一个专门的CSV类，像这样:

$csv = new csv();
$csv->load_data(array(
    array('name'=>'John', 'age'=>35),
    array('name'=>'Adrian', 'age'=>23), 
    array('name'=>'William', 'age'=>57) 
));
$csv->send_file('age.csv'); 

header("Content-Type: text/csv");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.csv");

function outputCSV($data) {
  $output = fopen("php://output", "wb");
  foreach ($data as $row)
    fputcsv($output, $row); // here you can change delimiter/enclosure
  fclose($output);
}

outputCSV(array(
  array("name 1", "age 1", "city 1"),
  array("name 2", "age 2", "city 2"),
  array("name 3", "age 3", "city 3")
));
