to convert ascii text use this function
function asc2bin($in)#syntax - asc2bin("text to convert");
{
$out = '';
for ($i = 0, $len = strlen($in); $i < $len; $i++)
{
$out .= sprintf("%08b",ord($in{$i}));
}
return $out;
}
use this function to convert binary back to readable ascii text
function bin2asc($in)#syntax - bin2asc("binary to convert");
{
$out = '';
for ($i = 0, $len = strlen($in); $i < $len; $i += 8)
{
$out .= chr(bindec(substr($in,$i,8)));
}
return $out;
}
have fun with it and please give credit if you use these functions :)
