Answer 1

Already very good solution came. I'm just puting the total code so that a newbie get total help

 $value) {
            //there may be separator (here I have used comma) inside data. So need to put double quote around such data.
        if(strpos($value, ',') !== false || strpos($value, '"') !== false || strpos($value, "\n") !== false) {
            $row[$key] = '"' . str_replace('"', '""', $value) . '"';
        }
    }
    echo implode(",", $row)."\n";
}

?>

I have saved this code in csv-download.php

Now see how I have used this data to download csv file

So when I have clicked the link it download the file without taking me to csv-download.php page on browser.
