in reply to Base64 Decode issues

Locking at your example strings, I think you are wrong when you speak of "base64". The encoded characters in your strings are HTML::Entities and you can decode them like this:

C:\>perl -MHTML::Entities -pe "$_=decode_entities($_)"
G&#101;o&#x72;gi&#x61;

You are right, I thought it was base64 because I was decoding it using this http://www.paulschou.com/tools/xlate/ I guess I didn't recognize the encoding.	[reply]
