html - PHP dynamically create CSV: Skip the first line of a CSV file

Question

I am trying to import a CSV file. Due to the program we use, the first row is basically all headers that I would like to skip since I've already put my own headers in via HTML. How can I get the code to skip the first row of the CSV? (the strpos command is to cut off the first field in all the rows.)

<?php
$row = 1;
if (($handle = fopen("ptt.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
    $num = count($data);
           $row++;
    for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) {
    if(strpos($data[$c], 'Finished') !== false) {
    $c++;
echo "<TR> <TD nowrap>" . $data[$c] . "</ TD>"; }
    Else{
        echo "<TD nowrap>" .  $data[$c] . "</ TD>";
        }
    }
}
fclose($handle);
}
?>

Answer 1

Rather than using if condition for checking whether it is the first row, a better solution is to just add an extra line of code before the line from where the while loop starts as shown below :

....
.....
fgetcsv($handle);//Adding this line will skip the reading of th first line from the csv file and the reading process will begin from the second line onwards
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
.......
.......

It is just as simple......
