No matter what you do, a PHP integer is going to be 32-bit. So "artbitrary length" is not gonna happen... Unless you use something like BC_MATH and specify your precision. Also look into the user-contributed notes on the http://php.net/bindec page, as many seem to be trying to do the same thing as you are. http://php.net/base_convert also had pointers about using GMP which may hold a solution. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
