I don't like using other people's code, especially when I don't understand exactly how something works. So, after looking through Joe's PHP script for connecting to Battle.net, I started looking through the PHP manual.
So my question is this. Does PHP's pack() (http://us3.php.net/pack) create the correct type of Endians that is needed to log onto Battle.net when you use 'v' and 'V'?
$a = pack('V', 0x00);
$b = pack('v', 0x00);
And would the above be the correct usage? Or do I need to use a different format character instead of 'V'?
If you read the descriptions of format on php.net, it tells you.
Eh, it still doesn't help a whole lot. Do I need short or long variable types?
It helps entirely.
Read the docs.

I completely forgot to check the B.net docs. You're right. I'm just retarded.
