I'm trying to save a multidimensional Javascript array as a CSV file on the server. So far, my code creates the CSV file, but the file doesn't contain my array, and I'm not sure why.
(where outputData is established)
function dataSave(){
outputStr = JSON.stringify(outputData);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "csvout.php",
data: outputStr,
dataType: 'html',
});}
csvout.php:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<?php
$array = json_decode($_POST['outputStr']);
$file = fopen("out/data.csv","w");
foreach ($array as $line){
foreach ($line as $item){
fputcsv($file,explode(',',$item));
}
}
fclose($file);
?>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
The data is an array of arrays like this one-- it's data obtained from the client, who is participating in a scientific experiment. Everything is a string.
0: "tuba.mp3"
1: "prac"
2: "1"
3: "0"
4: "type1"
5. "500"
0: "clap.mp3"
1: "main"
2: "0"
3: "0"
4: "type1"
5. "300"
