Is this good enough encryption for daily use ? FYI, I need to keep the first part of the file unencrypted so the file will progressively load Functions were taken from the mycrypt php page :) $chunkSize = 32768; $key = "6q9nKLg5" if( $fd = fopen($filepath, 'rb')){
     while(!feof($fd)) {
if($gotFastStartHeaders != true){ echo fread($fd, $chunkSize/30); $gotFastStartHeaders = true; }else{ echo encrypt(fread($fd, $chunkSize)); } }
     fclose ($fd);
     exit;
} //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // Encrypt function encrypt($encrypt) { global $key; //$key = "6q9nEUg5"; srand((double) microtime() * 1000000); //for sake of MCRYPT_RAND $iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB), MCRYPT_RAND); $passcrypt = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $key, $encrypt, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv); $encode = base64_encode($passcrypt); return $encode; } //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // Decrypt function decrypt($decrypt) { global $key; $decoded = base64_decode($decrypt); $iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB), MCRYPT_RAND); $decrypted = mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $key, $decoded, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv); return $decrypted; many thanks g On Sep 24, 2005, at 2:25 PM, Jasper Bryant-Greene wrote:

How do you display raw binary data of a file sent from a server with curl ?
You can probably just use file_get_contents() if allow_url_fopen is enabled (it is by default). For binary data, base64_encode and it's friend base64_decode allow you to encode and decode binary data in a normal ASCII string. http://php.net/file_get_contents http://php.net/base64_encode
I want to encrypt the file with something akin to str_replace and decode it on the other side with a custom data handler Just want to make sure that I am str_replace'ing the actual data and not a representation of it :)
str_replace is not for encryption. You might want to look at mcrypt, as using str_replace is probably just as bad as sending the unencrypted string. It's not going to be secure. http://php.net/mcrypt --Jasper Bryant-Greene Freelance web developer http://jasper.bryant-greene.name/ --PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
