Hihihihi Of course I already has the whole object to encrypt and decrypt, my problem is link to the size of the file. There is no mcrypt function to load directly a file, so it's need to preload it in a variable and then encrypt or decrypt it. But when the file is 12M size it failed. So I need to know a way to be able to encrypt large file. regards david Le Thu, 14 Jul 2005 13:33:25 +0200, Jay Blanchard <jay.blanchard@niicommunications.com> a écrit:

[snip] well I have a big file (around 12M), and I have to encrypt this file, and to decrypt some time after. How could I do? Is it possible to encrypt and decrypt a file line by line ?

You could try upping the max memory limit in your php.ini file, or with ini_set() if you only want to allow this for your one script...
