Converting Images to be Stored in JS Database

Here is the code on the server side to convert images into base64 such that you can save them into browser JS database for offline retrieval.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use MIME::Base64 qw(encode_base64);

open (FILE, "z.png");
binmode(FILE);
$photobin = "";
while (read(FILE, $buf, 60*57)) {
  $output = encode_base64($buf);
  $output=~s/\n//g;
  $photobin = $photobin.$output;
}
print $photobin;
close(FILE);
