Can anyone tell me what the equivalent to the following command line
usage of openssl is, in php using the mcrypt_* functions, please:

TIA.

I tried
,
| $iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_get_block_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256,
|  MCRYPT_MODE_CBC),
|MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
| $encryptedData = mcrypt_cbc(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256

`


use MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128
use an iv that's 32 bytes long (not 16)

Err.. why, if you don't mind me asking?



because MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 is the implementation of AES and if you use 
a 16 bit key you get AES 128, a 32 bit key and you get AES 256 :)


after a quick google for php aes 256, I'd point you to this:
http://www.chilkatsoft.com/p/php_aes.asp
which explains all
