unpack( .. ) problems!!

[Anon]

Hi all,

I am trying to mildly hex-obfuscate a string using unpack. The code was originally in perl and looks like this (converted into php):
$var1 = unpack( "H", "some text" );
$final = unpack( "H", $var1 );
echo $final;

However, this does not work in PHP. How can I set this up to return the same results?

Thanks,

Matt

Shouldn't you PACK something before you UNPACK?
