How do I Generate a CSV from a Web Form?

[Sazime]

I'm trying to do something, which I feel should be easy, but it's giving me a headache.

I want to create a mailing list on a website using a simple form (no crazy marketing/newsletter programs here) by allowing a visitor to simply enter their NAME and EMAIL and have that information inserted in a csv file so it can later be used to send out emails.

I'm not looking for anything fancy. Unsubscribing would be handled manually by direct email, for now, I just need a way to gather the information into one place.

Super simple would be to have a server side script handle and parse the form and then save it as a comma separated file...let me see if I can whip something up. I'm kind up in the boonies for the next week, but I'll see if I can figure something out.

I appreciate it. I've been looking around to see what I can do, but everything I find seems to be WAY more complex than what I actually need. I figured there had to be a simple way to get php to plop things right into a comma separated file, I just have no idea where to start.

Python has a very simple CSV lib. Used it last week. You could literally do what you're wanting from the lib documentation.

Hrm, not sure if the host I'd be doing it on is running Python, I'll have to ask my buddy to check out his service.
