Having trouble getting data to write to csv form  (See more user questions)

Hi

Always a delight to reply to customers!

Yes, I think you are making this harder than you need to. Can't you send
the emails to your client and attach the CSV files to the email? You can
put your client's email address in the script and configure it to attach a
CSV file as opposed to writing to a CSV file on the server.

Otherwise, it's beyond the scope of the script or PHP to control browser
behviour and .htaccess issues.

Best wishes.
