Here is a workaround for the base64_encode function under Win32. 1) Download the base64.exe program from http://www.fourmilab.ch/. 2) Write your own base64 encode function : function mybase64_encode($s) { $tmpfname = tempnam("", "tmp"); $fp = fopen($tmpfname, "w+"); if ( $fp ) { fwrite ($fp, $s); fclose($fp); exec("c:/bin/base64 -e " . $tmpfname . " " . $tmpfname . ".b64"); $fp = fopen($tmpfname . ".b64", "r"); $contents = fread($fp,filesize($tmpfname . ".b64")); fclose($fp); unlink($tmpfname); unlink($tmpfname . ".b64"); return($contents); } } With this function you don't need to call the chunk_split function. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.base64-encode.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+25259 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+25259 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+25259
