Need some help in porting a code from javascript to PHP

<pre id="codeSnippet337997" class="prettyprint">$ta{$i} ==> $ta[$i]</pre>

For array your have to use square brackets: []

When testing, set $codeKey = 0;  (NOT 1)  when in JS: var codeKey=1;
or $encN = $codeKey+1;  =>  $encN = $codeKey;

@mms_master:
Hey, thank you! Your code is really close to work perfect.
The only problem is this:

ttq%602.21%60jnh%2631%2639111%263%3A/kqh1     //Generated by JS
ttq%602.21%60jnh%2631%2639111%263%3A%2Fkqh1     //Generated by PHP

OK, I just checked it and the JS decoder both works with
ttq%602.21%60jnh%2631%2639111%263%3A/kqh1 and with
ttq%602.21%60jnh%2631%2639111%263%3A%2Fkqh1

Maybe because I use them to encode image URLs, and it displays them. So thank you!! You made my day! :)

I would be very happy if you could describe YOUR code in just 2-3 lines, because I would like to learn, not just copy&past :)
I know that rawurlencode() but I hadn't use it because I tested a string "abcde" and it gives back "abcde". It just escaping the special chars. While JS escape() makes "%61%62%63%64%65" from "abcde".
Thats why (and maybe because I'm a beginner) I dont understand that how can your code work. But it works!
So solution accepted, and thank you again! Just please help me to understand it :)

Thank you! Accepted, it works! But I would be very happy if you could please describe your code in just 2-3 lines, because I would like to learn, not just copy&past :) And thank you again!

Well spotted I missed that!

First of all this is why you were getting errors:

Error:
"Notice: Undefined offset: 67 in \\.host\Shared Folders\htdocs\encoder\encoder.php on line 29"

Reason:
On line 28 you had "for ($j=1; $j<=$i; $j++) {". You were trying to use $i which had been declared in the previous 'for' loop but not this one.  For more information on this try searching Google for "variable scope".

Fix:
I replaced $i with count($ta). Which as you probably know or guessed, returns the number of items in the array.

Error:
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in \\.host\Shared Folders\htdocs\encoder\encoder.php(32) : eval()'d code on line 1"

Reason:
The eval() function evaluates PHP code. You were passing an invalid string to it. See www.php.net/eval for more information.

Fix:
Removed the eval function.

I then removed your escape function and used rawurlencode instead. But yes as you pointed out, javascritps escape function encodes all characters where as the php function only encode special characters. To replicate the javascript output you would need to write your own function as you tried to with escape. If you try this you would need to use ord() before bin2hex().
