Creating CVS files on the fly.

[FirEwAteR]

Hi, I'm trying to make a downloadable CVS file on the fly without making a file on the server. Any suggestions of how to do this? I have all of the data stored in a variable $data. The ASP code to do it is:

Response.ContentType = "text/CSV"
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" &
sFileName)
Response.Write...
Response.Write...

I know that I need to set the headers like this:

header('Content-type: text/CSV');

header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="asdf.cvs"');

But I'm not sure how to write to the file. Thanks for any help.

Response.Write is the equivalent of echo/print. In other words, there are no actual files involved here. You just output to the browser, and the browser interprets it as a file due to the headers.
