// EXAMPLE #1 USING STRING AS MESSAGE

$cryptastic = new cryptastic;

$key = $cryptastic->pbkdf2($pass, $salt, 1000, 32) or
	die("Failed to generate secret key.");

$encrypted = $cryptastic->encrypt($msg, $key) or
	die("Failed to complete encryption.");

$decrypted = $cryptastic->decrypt($encrypted, $key) or
	die("Failed to complete decryption");

echo $decrypted . "<br /><br />\n";

/**********************************************************************************************************************/

// EXAMPLE #2 USING ARRAY AS MESSAGE

$msg        = array('message' => $msg);
$encrypted  = $cryptastic->encrypt($msg, $key);
