text to ascii function?

[themoose]

Does anybody know where I can find a function in php that does a similar job to this?

(note: i'm NOT looking for urlencode etc).

edit: similar to htmlentities but for every character.

No, I dunno how to do that ....















<?php
function str2ascii( $string )
{
$ascii = array( );

for( $i = 0; $i < strlen( $string ); $i++ ) $ascii[ $i ] = sprintf( "&#&#37;d;", ord( $string{$i} ) );

return implode( null, $ascii );
}

echo str2ascii( "my ascii string will be output as normal html" );
?>


...

I'm sorry. I never doubted you, I just thought you hadn't bothered yet :P.
