----

the function posted by hpartidas was an alternative for me in an environment with PHP < 5.3.

However the following if clause (line 20) is wrong:

<?php
// ...
if (empty($pos_delimiter) && empty($pos_enclosure_start)) {
// ...
?>

it should be

<?php
// ...
if (($pos_delimiter === false) && ($pos_enclosure_start === false)) { 
// ...
?>

So the corrected function is:

<?php
if (!function_exists('str_getcsv')) { 
    function str_getcsv($input, $delimiter = ',', $enclosure = '"', $escape = '\\', $eol = '\n') { 
        if (is_string($input) && !empty($input)) { 
            $output = array(); 
            $tmp    = preg_split("/".$eol."/",$input); 
            if (is_array($tmp) && !empty($tmp)) { 
                while (list($line_num, $line) = each($tmp)) {
                    if (preg_match("/".$escape.$enclosure."/",$line)) { 
                        while ($strlen = strlen($line)) {
                            $pos_delimiter       = strpos($line,$delimiter); 
                            $pos_enclosure_start = strpos($line,$enclosure); 
                            if (is_int($pos_delimiter) && is_int($pos_enclosure_start) && ($pos_enclosure_start < $pos_delimiter) ) { 
                                $enclosed_str = substr($line,1);
                                $pos_enclosure_end = strpos($enclosed_str,$enclosure); 
                                $enclosed_str = substr($enclosed_str,0,$pos_enclosure_end); 
                                $output[$line_num][] = $enclosed_str; 
                                $offset = $pos_enclosure_end+3; 
                            } else { 
                                if (($pos_delimiter === false) && ($pos_enclosure_start === false)) { 
                                    $output[$line_num][] = substr($line,0);
                                    $offset = strlen($line); 
                                } else { 
                                    $output[$line_num][] = substr($line,0,$pos_delimiter);
                                    $offset = ( !empty($pos_enclosure_start) && ($pos_enclosure_start < $pos_delimiter) ) ? $pos_enclosure_start  : $pos_delimiter+1;
