source

Sk8Er_GuY

is there any type of php code you can use to display the source of the php file ur trying to run??

axo

highlight_file(__FILE__);

Sk8Er_GuY

will that display the real source of a zend or all that gibberish??

What do you mean?

as far as I remember highlight_file() just displays the readable code within the passed php file.

i wanna take a zend encoded file and get the raw source

Sk8Er_GuY

when i add that to the top of the file all it shows is

Zend 20001120021119229xù Ÿ2 ÅpHjb®B¾‹KfH%"‘kû”ÒÜÜJ½Ä””"h¥ÍÒ iÆAò4Ž‘RoFjbJjDÐE”}ò“K2óó¬’KròÓ3óô 2 8  Ê@ #?@L„Av0ƒQRÌéÐð1@ —´

I have never used the Zend encoder or its files, so not too sure if you are even able to do this, as I guess the encoder as such compiles the code (one advantage: stopping other people from reading the code).

Are you not able to referance the source file?

i just want to get in to the source so i can take out part of the code the guy who made the scripted takes 20% of my traffic i know its not much but and i wanna use his code for so i can write my own

Theres no way to go from a Zend encoded file back to readable PHP code.

If this guy gave you a zend encoded file I believe that you will not be able to get the code.

See (http://www.zend.com/store/products/encoder-faq.php):

What is the Zend Encoder?

The Zend Encoder lets you distribute an unlimited number of your PHP applications and create PHP-driven Web sites without revealing your intellectual property. The optimization module from the Zend Optimizer™ provides increased security against reverse engineering and improve performance speed.

The Zend Encoder compiles PHP source code and encodes it to a Zend Intermediate Code file. End users can run your application using the Zend Optimizer as well; it is available for free at the Zend Store.

You will need the source code (before encoded) or do some searching to see if there is a way to decode the file, but then you could get into trouble with the guy who created it.
