Hello.
That's me, again.
I found a reason of my problem..not solution.
PHP use Cstyle string, where end of string si #0.
Let say I have a small 4byte file with content "AB#0C" (ascii: #65,#66,#0,#67)
I load it (using binary save fread into $txt)
When I try to get third character (#0), quess what I get:
$x = ord(substr($txt,2,1))
$x IS NOT 0!
$x IS 92, which mean backslash. Fourth char is 48, which means "0" and the fifth #67.
So, PHP replaces any #0 with "\0" in every string internally.
Which wouldn't be do bad, BUT:
INTERNAL base64_encode AND base64_decode FUNCTIONS FORGET IT!
That's the reason why I can't read any base64 encoded attachment with external email client.
WHAT A SHAME FOR PHP
(or for me if I'm wrong :-)
What do you thing about that?
Do PHP develop centre know about it?
Does exists any patch?
One possible solution is:
- Write custom base64 encoding/decoding, which will handle the problem (maybe encoding is enough)...
Does somebody have such a function?
Or do you see any other solution?
Or am I completely wrong? :-o
