Here's my current workaround: $rt = @dns_get_record($lookuphost, DNS_ANY); // workaround for http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47035 if (substr(PHP_VERSION,0,strpos(PHP_VERSION, '-')) == '5.2.8') { for($i = 0, $rts = sizeof($rt); $i < $rts; ++$i) { if ($rt[$i]['type'] == 'TXT') { // remove last byte $rt[$i]['txt'] = substr($rt[$i]['txt'], 0, -1); } } } Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-08 09:07:24] valli at icsurselva dot ch Description: ------------ The last byte of a TXT record returned by dns_get_record is garbage.
