Where can I find a hexadecimal decoder? There is this thing on a site I want to try, but there are 4,294,967,295 different combinations. IT's like this, there are 8 groups of 4 digits. Each digit is either a 1 or a 0. example:
1100 1100 1000 1000 0011 0011 0000 0000 which translates into 0xCC883300. Making any sense?

Do you mean a program that converts binary to hex? This is faster to do in your head, but if you want a program, Here are two:

http://www.cstc.org/data/resources/60/convtop.htmlI don't know what you mean by the combinations...There are that many unique numbers in the system you mentioned, but I don't know what that has to do with converting...
To do it in your head, you can either memorize the 16 binary patterns that go from 0-F (0-15), or you can convert it to decimal, then convert to hex:
xxxx

8421So you add up all the numbers that correspond to the positions of the 1s:
1011

8021=11(decimal)=B(hex)0101
||||
0401=5(decimal)=5(hex)Hope this is what you mean...Feel free to post back with some clarification on what you are trying to do.

If just doing a few conversions from Binary/HEX to decimal, you can use the Calculator that comes with Windows. You may have to install it if it is not in the Start - Programs - Accessories list (Add/Remove Programs - Windows Setup - Accessories - Calculator).
By default, it is a simple calculator, but if you click View button, you can convert it to a scientific Calculator which allows you to work with and convert between HEX, Decimal, Octal and Binary. You can even limit the bit count to 8, 16, 32 or default 64 bits (eight byte).

go to www.thematrix.com, click high bandwith, then when the top tool bar loads, look all the way to the right, there should be a little yellow circle... click on it, it opens up a little panel, click the little square box in the middle twice, it then drops down an access panel 3. for the number combination type in 01101111, then access panel 2 will load. it is in hex format. that is what i'm trying to do.

Okay, I got there, but I still don't know "what you want to do." Do you mean you want to do something like that on your own website? I don't even understand what the point is...Do you enter in a certain combination and something cool happens?

i think you guys are on the wrong track here. He already knows HEX/Bin conversion..he wants to run a script/program to 'test' a value.
ie, kinda like some sort of brute force password attack to test all value combinations within a range..or decypher crypto...
Not saying his intentions are such, however the wording he uses implies this.. :D
