Anyone have any thoughts? Glenn's right, you need to url the encrypted value, not encrypt the urled value: [replace db=/data/charlotteusers.db&eqUSERIDdatarq=[id]]pass=[url][encrypt seed=[id]][_pass][/encrypt][/url][/replace] .. and you don't have to unurl it when retrieving it from the db: [search db=/data/charlotteusers.db&eqUSERIDdatarq=[id]] [founditems] [decrypt seed=[id]][pass][/decrypt] [/founditems] [/search] Just don't let them change their userid value without also doing the [replace] or you'll end up with a seed that won't work with the stored pass value. -- Kenneth Grome WebDNA Programmer Outsource Service Provider Phone: +6332 255-6591 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
