+ be aware that there is an external pointer. This will often
+ happen with Makernotes that include an embedded thumbnail.
+ This damage could be prevented where makernotes can be decoded,
+ but currently this is not implemented.

+ <h3>Notes:</h3>
+ <p>
+ Unfortunately, because EXIF data may be distributed anywhere
+ throughout an image file, rather than just being in one block,
+ it is impossible to pass just a string containing only the EXIF
+ information. Hence it is neccessary to be able to seek to
+ any point in the file. This causes the HTTP and FTP wrappers
+ not to work - i.e. the EXIF functions will only work with local
+ files.
+ </p>
+ To work on an internet file, copy it locally to start with:
+ </p>
+ <blockquote>
+ $newfilename = tempnam ( $dir, "tmpexif" );<br>
+ copy ( "http://whatever.com", $newfilename );
+ </blockquote>
+
+ <p>
+ There are three global variables which can be set to alter the look of any HTML
+ output from Interpret_EXIF_to_HTML:
+ </p>
+ <blockquote>
+ $GLOBALS['HIDE_UNKNOWN_TAGS'];<br>
+ $GLOBALS['SHOW_BINARY_DATA_HEX'];<br>
+ $GLOBALS['SHOW_BINARY_DATA_TEXT'];
+ </blockquote>
+ <p>These variables are all boolean and all default to FALSE</p>
