How to Encode a file? by ArkaneArkade on 10-26-2008 at 07:14 PM
Hey guys,
I've been updating a script to remove non working ftp functions from it. I tried to use the plus built in ftp upload, but it doesnt work on this server. I can upload a base64 encoded file to the server for it, and have already been given some help regarding that. I don't however have the slightest clue how to actually do it to a file instead of just a string.
Is there anything I can do, such as read a file into a variable so that I can convert it?
The files I'm trying to convert to upload are only display pictures, not other file types, if that makes any difference to how I need to read the files.
Cheers guys

- On a slightly related note, can anyone tell me the dimensional limits of a DP? Does MSN send them as 64x64, or 128 or does it just scale down an image to fit the DP area.
Cheers again guys

Again, I shall upload a file to end all of your grief. Again, it is made by Volv. Both files are from the same library
