Im currently using base64_encode for some $_GET params that i don’t want regular user to mess with.
I was wondering that base64 is not looking too strong or is it ?
I also don’t want to make some sort of mega encoding it’s not so much of important information, but i would not like that user with average knowledge would mess with params in get.
Should i keep using base64 ? Currently it produces MQ== if value is 1 so it’s quite easy to take it out from URL and decode and then insert your own.
If you want some real encryption/decryption take a look at the Mcrypt features of PHP. http://www.php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.examples.php
But then you may want to use POST instead of GET because of the URL specifications which are limited in character usage and URL length.
