Hi,

Maybe quite strange question and quite off topic, but there's PHP involved :)

I want to read out files, and then I come across 4byte DWORD values,
they are stored in little endian values, but how do I get in a PHP
string (as the values are too large for integer)

My code is currently this:
$data = fread($fp,4);
$value = 
(ord(substr($data,3,1))*256*256*256)+(ord(substr($data,2,1))*256*256)+(ord(substr($data,1,1))*256)+(ord(substr($data,0,1)));

and now $value contains the value of the DWORD, it works fine, but it
seems that it could be done a lot easier :)
Anyone experience with it?
