Note Submitter: did not have a clue what bitwise is ---- I did not know what bitwise is at all. And there was no explanation in this page. So I searched the web. Came across this page: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article1563.asp This gives a fairly good introduction to what this bitwise thing is and what it is used for. But still, I would like to see some more practical examples of this, and how i can use bitwise in my php web pages.
