all,

i have recently stumbled upon the
pack<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pack.php>method.
can this be used as a substitute for
serialize<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.serialize.php>
?

No. pack() is for creating binary representations of data, while serialize() returns a text representation of a PHP sitructure, (for objects the class must be loaded before you unserialize it).
