note 25349 added to ref.bc

A found a little fix to do in my base2dec() function: The line "if($base<37) $value=strtolower($value);" should be removed if you want to specify another digits for your base conversions. Change it this way: if(!$digits) { $digits=digits($base); if($base<37) { $value=strtolower($value); } } Another example using these functions is to generate a key for a session, to name temporary files or something else: srand((double) microtime()*1000000); $id=uniqid(rand(10,999)); $mykey=dec2base(base2dec($id,16),64); $mykey is a base64 value, which is a good key for passing thru an URL and also is shorter than a MD5 string (it will be allways 11 chars long). If you need something more secure, just scramble the 64 digits in the digits() function. Well, I hope you enjoy it.
