Re: mcrypt_encrypt giving different results for same input?



well, not necesarily. Maybe it's a chain cypher - and he's not
re-initializing.

Although his code sample does say ECB, I don't know what the parameters
mean for this extension function anyway.

I hate to state the obvious, but obviously there is something different
between the two. mcrypt_encrypt gives the same output for the same input.

Look for differences in capitalization, '1' (one) instead of 'l' (lower
case ell) or 'I' (upper case eye), for instance. It's very easy to do.
