lionfaggot,

Necroposting in a 6 year old thread is bad enough, but hijacking it as well is too much. Just start a new thread when you have a question rather then giving me extra work to split the post off and create a new thread for you.

Save it to "test.txt" and run this script

$Fh = FileOpen("test.txt")
While 1
    $irec = FileRead($fh,40)
    If @error then ExitLoop
    ConsoleWrite(BinaryToString("0x" & $irec,4))
WEnd

thanks Jos, if you were a girl id treat you to a nice steak dinner with plenty of fries

EDIT:

on a side note i already tried splitting the return into chunks, headers return pure clean http response but when i get to the body it GOES NUTS. starts giving me all these crazy chars. i think i know what to do! im not going to do anything! i have no idea!

The "go nuts bit" is probably after this line?:

Content-Encoding: gzip

You get one guess why that is...

[lionfaggot]

gzi} encoding? i dont know how to use that. any functions available? it says gzi} encoding though, not gzip, so i must confess i have no idea what this is

Search the forum. I think there us an UDF available.

[lionfaggot]

i looked at the zlib udf but i have no clue how to use it, guess ill ask there
