Convert BlobBuilder to String, in HTML5 Javascript

Question

function blobToString(blob) { var reader = new FileReader(); var d = ""; reader.onloadend = function() { d.callback(reader.result); console.log(reader.result); }; reader.readAsText(blob); return d; }; 

The above code does not work, but I think my intentions are clear, I want to convert some binary data (WebKitBlobBuilder) to a string. Also "console.log (reader.result)"; nothing is displayed.

Answer 1

Check out http://blog.ericzhang.com/state-of-binary-in-the-browser/ and your binary.js project .

Answer 2

it should not be reader.onloadend, but rather reader.onloaded

or try

 reader.onload = function (e) { e.target.result -> this is the data. }
