PHP pack with type H doesn't work

I'm trying to convert a hex link to text on another page.

Here's part of the code that should do it:

URL = url.php?post=48656c6c6f20736972733f

$file = $_GET['post'];
$file = pack("H*",bin2hex($file));
echo "<h2 class='center'>The file " . $file . " does not exist</h2>";

or

$title = pack("H*",bin2hex($_GET['post']));
$title = ucfirst($title);
echo $title;

The output on these are "48656c6c6f20736972733f"

Solution

  • Found the answer

    pack("H*", $file);

    Worked great
