How do I get the byte values of a string in PHP?

Question

Say I have a string in php, that prints out to a text file like this:

nÖ§9q1Fª£

How do I get the byte codes of this to my text file rather than the funky asc

Answer 1

If you are talking about the hex value, this should do for you:

$value = unpack('H*', "Stack");
echo $value[1];
