I'm trying to make it translate binary

 
<?php
//get the variable
$code = $_POST['bicode'];
//make sure they are numbers
$check = ereg ("^[01]+", $code);

//With an if statment
If ($check){
	//Start the code to interpret it
	$chars = count($code);
		//start the loop
		for ($a = 0; $a < $chars; $a++) {

	//Make another variable, an excuse for a, just for caution
	$b = $a;
	//We need to start the answer somewhere
	$answer = 1;
		//Make another for loop so you can times it by powers (I need help here)
		for ($z=0; $z < $a; z++){

			//Take the number and multiply by itself
			$answer = $answer * $code[$b];


	}

//Tell them what it is
echo "$answer";

}

//If it's not proper, tell them so	
else{
echo "This is not proper binary code";
}


?>
    <?php
//get the variable
$code = '1000110011001';
//make sure they are numbers
$check = ereg ("^[01]+", $code);

//With an if statment
if ($check!=false) {
  //Start the code to interpret it
  $chars = count($code);
  //start the loop
  for ($a = 0; $a < $chars; $a++) {
    //Make another variable, an excuse for a, just for caution
    $b = $a;
    //We need to start the answer somewhere
    $answer = 1;
    //Make another for loop so you can times it by powers (I need help here)
    for ($z=0; $z < $a; $z++){
      //Take the number and multiply by itself
      $answer .= $answer * $code[$b];
    }
  }
 //Tell them what it is
  echo "$answer";

} else {
  echo "This is not proper binary code";
}


?>

    That just fixes a few errors i found. Not sure if thats the help you wanted

      Nope, it doesn't show anything, I have no Idea what's wrong.

        If this is working code intended for critique, I'd suggest that [man]bindec[/man] would do most of the job.

          worships Oh great master of simplifying big fuctions!
