Convert a string to bytes

[$tatic]

Here is my code that I have a problem:

InputText = "sklfjlkjd"; 
byte [] EncryptedData = Convert.FromBase64String (InputText) // Error on line: Invalid length for a Base-64 char array. 

There is no white in my string so I do not understand too well the error.

Any idea?

Is it toBase64 that you want to do?

Probably you made a mistake in writing the code.

Your string is not a multiple of 4 (in length). If the string contains base64, it should be padded with "=" at the end if it is not multiple of 4

I also wonder if this is not the opposite that you want to do ...

Why don't you use something like System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(s) ?
