Creating A Csv File.
I am working on a site and have given my client an option to export the product list, import new products and update the existing products. Things are working well. I am using the escape function to escape the single and double quotes and the import and export is work well. but the other day i found a problem and can't work out how to work around it,
Basically the database and the books in it have been uploaded before i started and a lot of the quotes and single quotes are still in the database and ' and " and not ' or ". changeing those are not a problem. The problem come when they have ‘ ’ “ ” stored. I ones in the database i have seen i have converted to ‘ ’ “ ” but there are others.
So basically i was wondering if anyone else create csv file what rules do you use to fix all the problems. Another point is when i save HTML into the database (the HTML is created using FCKEditor) itt puts line breaks at the end ot the lines. When i export it to a csv file it still have the line breaks in. I have tried to remove the but thats doesn't seem to help.

Creating Link To File Or Temp File For User Download
I am designing a document management system (DMS). The files are stored in a directory on the webserver. The filenames for the documents are stored in a MySQL database. The DMS will track revisions from the initial version through the updates. We must have strict permissions set so only authorized personnel can access some documents. All of the documents when uploaded are given totally random names such as "114723fb5422c6bd5ed18f6.doc". Is there a way, without the webserver creating a new file name "document_specs_ver2.doc" to have the file download named "document_specs_ver2.doc". If I must physically create a new file, how do I know when the webserver would be allowed to delete it? Notes: The files will be in several different file formats, not just "doc".

Fopen() Not Creating File
I am attempting to write an online HTML editor for my website, and the first step is trying to make sure that the user has an index.html file in their folder, and if it doesn't create it and put in the basic text that the file should contain. For some reason the code won't make the file, and thus it is unable to read it into my textarea box. I have my error reporting turned all the way on. I have tried using the following methods of opening the file: w, w+, x, x+, a, a+. None of which will create the file for me.......

I do not want a jpg-onky page with the result, but need to place it in a table, etc. Problem is, with my current script (see below), the encoded file gets copied, renamed and is usable for viewing, but next this image just resides on the server, while it should be deleted after the image is loaded onto the client's screen.

Creating An XML File From A PHP Search Engine
I've written a search algorithm that will be used on a fairly large (350 - 400 pages) site. I have decided to make the script output an xml file to which I will apply an xsl style sheet to format and display the results in html. My question is what is the best way to create the xml file using php? Are there any useful functions available specifically for this type of thing, I have searched the forums but found nothing of any use. The way I'm thinking is to create the xml file at the beginning of the search script, loop through searching the pages and building an xml fragment for each result, after the loop has exited the script will add the closing xml tag. I know that I can make the script work how I just described it but I would like to know if anyone has written anything like this before and whether there are any shortcuts or tips that anyone knows of.

Creating VCalendar File, Fails In IE!
I have a script producing a .vcs file for Events taking places. If you click the link in FF, the download boax appears, click Open with "Microsoft Office Outlook" and the Event page is loaded with all data. If you try the same in IE, when you click the "Open" button, Outlook sounds with a Error: "The operation failed. An object could not be found." If you save the file to disk and click open, via IE it loads fine. Just not on the fly. This happens on any machine with IE. I have just tried to access a static created vcs file off the server, via IE and it works fine, so It would appear to be a problem with IE trying to access the dynamic file, as if the temp vcs file is not being created when you click "open". How can I solve this, if its a IE problem?

Creating A Config File Through PHP Form
I have a php script that creates a config.php file (with mysql database name, password, etc. in it) from user input into a form. It is creating the config.php file with the permissions of 666. Will this be a big security problem? Does giving permissions with global write access make it more possible for others to get access to the username password information? Or does it just make it more possible for them to write over or delete the file? I noticed that if I modify the script to chmod to 644, then it is no longer possible for me to change the file permissions or even delete the file through an FTP client like FileZilla because PHP has the file ownership which is different from the FTP owner. Does anyone know the security implications of the config file having permissions set at 666?
