Answer 1

There is nothing wrong with your code, however to generate the same code as Openfire, you will need to add in two other items before the encrypted text.

• length of ciphertext
• CBCIV (initialization variable)

Read "public String decryptString(String sCipherText)" in java code, it's all there. Also check the docs on how to use CBCIV in PHP.
