I just don't want it human readable.
Like i have foo.cfm?{"var":"val"} and i just want to encrypt the query
string and decrypt it in the foo.cfm page

Subject: RE: [cfaussie] JavaScript equivelant to HASH function
Steve, you've mentioned 3 really unrelated subjects in this thread: hashing
and encoding, and others have mentioned encrypting. So which is it you
really need?
In your last note, you say "I am passing some JSON strings around which i
want to just encode and decode elsewhere". Perhaps if you explain what your
goal is, it will help: are you trying to protect the strings from being
interpreted by someone between the client and server? That may call for
encryption, though as has been noted SSL would solve that, too.
Or are you trying to avoid use of some strings that cause a problem with
some aspect of what you're doing? In that case, encoding may be the
solution. I'd think that whatever creates your JSON strings might already
have handled some of that.
Hashing is for when you want to take a string and turn it into a new one,
where you can't revert back to the original, but you can use that hashed
result to compare to later hashing of other strings.
So again, what's your real end-goal? Does this help?
