Question

I have a data URI I am getting from javascript and trying to save via php. I use the following code which gives a apparently corrupt image file:

  $data = $_POST['logoImage'];

  $uri = substr($data,strpos($data,",")+1);

  file_put_contents($_POST['logoFilename'], base64_decode($uri));



data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAoAAAAKCAYAAACNMs 9AAAACXBIWXMAAAsTAAALEwEAmpwYAAAAxklEQVQYlYWQMW7CUBBE33yITYUUmwbOkBtEcgUlTa7COXIVV5RUkXKC5AxU EdyZVD4kyKxkwIrr9vd0c7Oih aopinLNsF6Qkg2XW4XJ7LGFsAAcTV6lF5/jLdbALA9XDAXYfthFQVx OrmqKYK88/7rbbMFksALieTnzu9wDYTj6f70PKsp2kwAiSvjXNcvkWpAfNZkzWa/5a9yT7fdoX7rrB7hYh2fXo9HdjPYQZu3MIU8bYIlW20y0RUlXG2Kpv/vfwLxhTaSQwWqwhAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC

Below the code is the actual image as a Data-URI. ‘logoImage’ is the string above, and $uri is the string minus ‘image/jpeg;base64,’.

A quick look at the PHP manual yields the following:

If you want to save data that is derived from a Javascript
canvas.toDataURL() function, you have to convert blanks into plusses.
If you do not do that, the decoded data is corrupted:

$encodedData = str_replace(' ','+',$encodedData);
$decodedData = base64_decode($encodedData);
