I'm actually running the php site on a Windows server, but it looks like
the endian-ness may still be an issue.

The Windows program was made with PowerBuilder, and since PowerBuilder
is able to create .Net assemblies, and PHP is supposed to be able to use
..Net assemblies, I thought it might be easiest to use the existing code
and put it in an assembly.

Turns out PHP's support for .Net assemblies is not all that great. Yes,
the example at php.net for this functionality works, but as stated in
several stagnant bug reports, other objects within the same mscorlib.dll
assembly don't even work. Is is correct, as it appears, that development
on DOTNET has ceased, leaving it not very usable?

This has been one long week, with nothing really to show for it. :(
