messing you up.

Use something like:

$l = strlen($input);
for ($i = 0; $i < $l; $i++){
  echo "$i: $input[$i] (", ord($input[$i]), ")<br />\n";
}
to see what you're getting.

Richard:

As usual, you are exactly right.

I found that somehow a gremlin had crept in -- I still don't understand how, but it did. So, I stepped through the string similar to what you did and replaced everything that wasn't supposed to be there.

Interesting that making a text file with the string and looking at it via a Hex Editor, I found that the gremlin was a 0A (new line), but when it was on the server, it was two characters ("High" ASCII 194/160) -- very strange.

In any event, I fixed it. I didn't have the time to run down why.

Thanks,

tedd
