    Just a short function to convert binary to decimal using logs. Input decimal and specify number of bits in output. Default lenght of 8 bits. Auto adjusts for numbers larger than specified output.

    By : bjpalmer

    function decToBin ($decimal, $bits=8)
    {
    $binaryString = "";
    if($decimal>(pow(2, $bits)-1))
    {
    $bits = ceil(log10($decimal + 1) / log10(2));
    }
    for($i=0; $i<$bits; $i++)
    {
    $binary[$i] = 0;
    }
    while($decimal > 0)
    {
    $power = (integer) (log10($decimal) / log10(2));
    $binary[$power] = 1;
    $decimal = $decimal - pow(2, $power);
    }
    for($i=($bits-1); $i>=0; $i--)
    {
    $binaryString = $binaryString.$binary[$i];
    }
    return $binaryString;
    }
