I have a function that is called via ajax which creates a csv file, the response code coming back is 200 but the file doesn't download - the function I have is:
private function createCvsObject($array){
$f = fopen('ActiveReports.csv', 'w');
foreach($array as $projectNumber=>$project){
fputcsv($f, $project, ',');
}
fclose($f);
}
As far as I know, it creates the csv file - but it wont download it. Is there some step I am missing in here so that it will auto download the file after creating it?
Just add
header('Content-Type: application/csv');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=ActiveReports.csv');
header('Pragma: no-cache');
readfile("ActiveReports.csv");
after fclose($f);
