Encrypting a String to send in a URL

I have a string with Parameters and their values that i need to send in a URL to a website.

How can I encrypt it where the other party writing in PHP can decrypt it?

Hi,
Try this code,

// Generate an AES key for the purpose of this sample.
// Normally this key should be stored in a protected custom setting
// or an encrypted field on a custom object
Blob cryptoKey = Crypto.generateAesKey(256);

// Generate the data to be encrypted.
Blob data = Blob.valueOf('Test data to encrypted');
// Encrypt the data and have Salesforce.com generate the initialization vector
Blob encryptedData = Crypto.encryptWithManagedIV('AES256', cryptoKey, data);

I hope this sloves your problem.

Thanks
Nitin

Thanks Nitin, but I need to generate a key myself and give to the PHP developer on the other end.

How can he decrypt it ?

Thanks Nitin, How can I turn the Blob (encryptedData) into a string that I can pass in the URL ?
