now i am unserializing this array using the fallowing steps:
$user_group_query = $this->db->query("SELECT permission FROM " . DB_PREFIX . "user_group WHERE user_group_id = '" . (int)$user_query->row['user_group_id'] . "'");
$permissions = unserialize($user_group_query->row['permission']);
but i am getting the error saying:
Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 0 of 7081 bytes in D:\wamp\www\UI\system\library\user.php on line 23
why i am getting this error???
if anyone faced the similar problem plese help me…
Just as a quick guess that whitespace found it’s way into the string, add a trim() before to the serialized string before trying to unserialize it.
