I can't find out how to properly read an integer from a random place in a binary file, so I wrote this function. It's a bicycle-style, and works only with unsigned, but it works for me: function uintfread($fp, $intsize = 4, $endian = 'little') { if(!ftell($fp)) { return false; } $result = 0; $data = array(); for($i = 0; $i < $intsize; $i++) { $r = fread($fp, 1); if($r == false) { $intsize = $i; break; } $data[$i] = $r; $data[$i] = ord($data[$i]); } if($endian == 'little') { $result = $data[$intsize-1]; if($intsize > 1) { for($i = $intsize-2; $i >= 0; $i--) { $result *= 256; $result += $data[$i]; } } } else { $result = $data[0]; if($intsize > 1) { for($i = 0; $i < $intsize; $i++) { $result *= 256; $result += $data[$i]; } } } return $result; } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 77.235.104.41 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fscanf.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/110107 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110107 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/110107 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
