O.P. How to Encode a file?
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

Regular display pictures are limited at 96 * 96 px.
