In PHP, Removing first element in CSV String

Question

I'm simply looking to take the first csv out of a string, using PHP. Here are a few examples:

• "Sea Bass, Floured Or Breaded, Fried" => "Floured Or Breaded, Fried"
• "Tuna, Fresh, Baked Or Broiled" => "Fresh, Baked Or Broiled"
• "Croaker, Breaded Or Battered, Baked" => "Breaded Or Battered, Baked"

And so on...

Thank you.

Answer 1

I suggest using str_getcsv or something similar that parses csv, this will take into account any quotation marks and commas in the CSV string. after that you can just array_shift

Answer 2

You can try this:

$csvArray = explode(",", $csv);
array_shift($csvArray);
$newCsv = implode(",", $csvArray);
