note 98178 added to mcrypt.examples

Correction - the padding character count is 1-based instead of 0-based (duh). Here's the corrected function: function decrypt($password) { $key = 'some key'; $iv = 'some iv'; $cipher = mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_TRIPLEDES,'','cbc',''); mcrypt_generic_init($cipher, $key, $iv); $decrypted = mdecrypt_generic($cipher,$bytes); mcrypt_generic_deinit($cipher); for($i=0; $i < strlen($decrypted); $i++) { if(ord($decrypted[$i]) <= 8) { $decrypted = substr($decrypted, 0, $i); break; } } return $decrypted; } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 173.13.101.253 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.examples.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98178 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98178 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98178 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
