Just to get things straight about which character table ord() and chr() uses. The range 128-255 is _not_ equivalent with the widely used extended ASCII-table, like the one described in www.asciitable.com. The actual equivalent is the 128-255 range of Unicode. That's a good thing, because then ord() and chr() is compatible with javascript, and any other language that uses Unicode. But it's rather nice to know it, and the description of ord() is kind of misleading, when it only refers to www.asciitable.com. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ord.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42942 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42942&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42942&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
