(PHP ActiveX) Encrypting and Decrypting Content

Demonstrates how to encrypt and decrypt the content of an XML node using 128-bit CBC AES encryption.

The input XML, available at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/data/fox.xml, is this:

<root>
    <fox1>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</fox1>
    <fox2>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
        <child1>ABC</child1>
        <child2>XYZ</child2>
    </fox2>
</root>

<?php

$xml = new COM("Chilkat_9_5_0.Xml");

//  The sample input XML is available at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/data/fox.xml
$success = $xml->LoadXmlFile('fox.xml');
if ($success != 1) {
    print $xml->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Navigate to the "fox1" node, which is the 1st child:
$success = $xml->FirstChild2();

//  Encrypt the content:
$success = $xml->EncryptContent('myPassword');

//  Navigate back to the root:
$xml->GetRoot2();

//  Examine the new XML document:
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

//  This is the XML w/ the encrypted content:

/*
<root>
    <fox1>1hTtf7XmO+78H+OIr5eWHIuXxP78KPeYrZbsD0HX4negO9ZRqYMBY4s46sPNp+Q+
    </fox1>
    <fox2>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
        <child1>ABC</child1>
        <child2>XYZ</child2>
    </fox2>
</root>

*/

//  Now decrypt and show that the original content was restored:
$success = $xml->FirstChild2();
$success = $xml->DecryptContent('myPassword');
$xml->GetRoot2();
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

//  Now encrypt the content of the "fox2" node.
//  First navigate to the "fox2" child.
$success = $xml->FindChild2('fox2');
$success = $xml->EncryptContent('myPassword');
$xml->GetRoot2();
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

//  This is the XML w/ the "fox2" encrypted content:

/*
<root>
    <fox1>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</fox1>
    <fox2>1hTtf7XmO+78H+OIr5eWHIuXxP78KPeYrZbsD0HX4negO9ZRqYMBY4s46sPNp+Q+

        <child1>ABC</child1>
        <child2>XYZ</child2>
    </fox2>
</root>

*/

//  Notice that the *content* of the node is encrypted.  The child nodes are NOT encrypted.
//  This is intentional.  To encrypt the content + the subtrees rooted at a given node,
//  one would call ZipTree to transform the content and subtrees
//  to Base64-encoded compressed content, and then call
//  EncryptContent to encrypt.

//  Finally, decrypt the "fox2" content:
$success = $xml->FindChild2('fox2');
$success = $xml->DecryptContent('myPassword');
$xml->GetRoot2();
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";
