nats url decoder

[JD]

anyone know how or has something that will decode a NATS url?

Yes, but why would you need it?

As of NATS v3 this is a nats code:

list($data, $tourid, $subid1, $subid2, $adid) = explode(',', $natscode);
$chars = strlen($data);
$add = 4 - ($chars % 4);
if ($add < 4) while($add--) $data .= '=';

list($campaignid, $programid, $siteid) = explode(':', base64_decode($data));

I doubt that, but no matter why he needs it the data you get from decoding a nats url is pretty uninteresting.

We all know that the nats urls can come in two forms. The encoded and the clear text.. The thing is that the encoded version is not just an encoded version of the clear text version - it encodes some id's instead.. Which would be pretty useless to most of us..

no. I want to see the real ID behind an encoded NATS url

It sure is a good thing you set up this GFY board to answer questions and do support

You can't crack the code, it's in Navaho.
