I guess I confused the matter by mentioning hex. The problem is the same
with decimal number; for example
<?php
        $var = 20;
        echo $var; // This will send 32 30 over the wire, not 14 (hex
value of decimal 20)
                 // How do I make it send 14?
?>

I guess "echo" function treats $var as a string. Maybe I am looking for
a function that will sends a data stream as it is

Thanks,
Khoa
