we have php 4.0.6 (with memory limit fix) and mcrypt 2.5.5 installed. $iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_Blowfish, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB), MCRYPT_RAND); $dbaccount_number = base64_encode(mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_Blowfish, $key, $dbaccount_number, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv)); this code works fine. many other MCRYPT functions mentioned in the PHP.net manual generate strange error-codes!?! and we use base64encoding for safe transport over POST or GET method because the mcrypt-output seems to be more than 8bit wide. hopefully we helped a bit using MCRYPT with PHP... -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mcrypt.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+15937 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+15937 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+15937
