I have a URL dynamically displayed with a PHP script. This URL comes to be the name of a CSS class. I need to use this class name into a jQuery script after an Ajax call response (All the HTML into this specific class has to be hidden).

The URL contains / and . and : — To make it easier in my jQuery script, I would like to convert the URL into an Integer with a PHP function (like hash("md5",)) … and in my JavaScript, convert the URL again into an integer that will be obviously the same.

I read that How to calculate md5 hash of a file using javascript
but it doesn’t look like the best solution. Does anyone have a more intelligent solution?

Regards

    You are probably looking for encoding and not hashing, as you want to read the URL back. I’d try using base64 – on the server side: http://php.net/manual/en/function.base64-decode.php and http://php.net/manual/en/function.base64-encode.php

    And on client (JavaScript) side: http://www.webtoolkit.info/javascript-base64.html, How can you encode a string to Base64 in JavaScript?
