note 87442 added to function.base64-decode

You can do partial decoding (e.g. from buffered input streams) if you choose a chunk length that is multiple of 4: <?php $encoded = base64_encode('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'); for($i=0, $len=strlen($encoded); $i<$len; $i+=4){ echo base64_decode( substr($encoded, $i, 4) ); } ?> 4 encoded chars represent 3 original chars. The "=" character is used as padding. ---- Server IP: 130.206.1.5 Probable Submitter: 80.37.14.51 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.base64-decode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/87442 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87442 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/87442 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
