ID: 34214 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: dev at worldlinked dot net -Status: Open +Status: Verified -Bug Type: *Mail Related +Bug Type: Strings related -Operating System: all +Operating System: * -PHP Version: 5.0.4 +PHP Version: 5CVS, 6CVS, 4CVS (2005-08-24) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-23 22:59:57] dev at worldlinked dot net Hmm, Im pretty sure it still fails. We tried it also with 4.4.0. I did notice though that if you cut and paste the phps file that the spaces do not appear in $enctext in the first line. Perhaps you can try again and manually put spaces at the beginning of each line, or you can download a tgz of the php file here: http://www.worldlinked.net/blog/files/testbase64.tgz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-23 02:19:50] sniper@php.net Works fine with using PHP 4.4.0, PHP 5.1-dev, PHP 6.0-dev..

However if a caracter such as a space is in the encoded data (which some encoders such as newegg.com do) then the base64_decode does not work.

Whitespace needs to be trimmed from the email before it will properly decode. Actual result: -------------- Hello, There seems to be a problem with php's base64_decode() function.
