hi..
just joined . hi to everyone.
I am trying to setup a xml for a friend of mine.. the source is a remote http server ...and you can send differnt api request to it and you recieve a responce depending on the request.
In the api documentation it says the userid and login id must be base 64 encoded..The api request query i send to the remote server I encode the userid and login id.
I am trying to echo the responce and all get is encoded message.I am been trying to figure out what i need to do to encode it.i tried echo base64_decode($str); but all i get is blank page ..if i do just echo $responce then i get a responce but is un readable.
here is the code ii am trying to use.i am usng php 5
i am still learning php. if i have messed up on something do let me know.
kind regards
