note 71849 added to function.fsockopen

here is my contribution for parsing chunked data. please note: this function simply handles the RESPONSE, not the HEADERS, it would be your job to check the headers for 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' field: <?php function parseChunked($response) { $do = true; $return = ""; $size = NULL; while($do) { // suppress warnings w/ @ if offset not in string (past end) $pos = @strpos($response, "\r\n", 0); if(!($pos === false) && $size === NULL) { // we found CRLF, get len from hex $size = hexdec(substr($response, 0, $pos)); // get the actual chunk-len, reset $response, $size $return .= substr($response, $pos+2, $size); $response = substr($response, ($pos+2) + $size); $size = NULL; } else { $do = false; } // end if/else } // end while return $return; } // end function parseChunked() ?> Any recomendations or improvements please post ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 209.204.83.5 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71849 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71849 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71849 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
