Subject: Re: NEED HELP Encrypt Url ?


Encrypting URL strings is often desirable, but some time ago I tried
exactly the method suggested by Billy Cravens (using CF's
encrypt/decrypt functions) and inadvertently created problems.  Most of
the time it would work fine, but extended testing caused CF to hang once
in a while.  Because the problem was intermittent it took a long time to
track the problem to the encrypted URLs.  I solved the problem by
getting rid of the CF encrypt/decrypt method and developing a custom
encryption/decryption algorithm to pass encrypted URLs, which has worked
fine ever since.

It's possible that your system may work fine passing encrypted URLs
using CF's native encrypt/decrypt functions (good luck!), but if you
find your server hanging once or twice a day, you now know where to look
first for the problem.

When you generate your url strings, use encrypt() to encrypt the
variables; when you need to reference those url variables, decrypt them
using decrypt()
