MD5 is a one-way encryption algorithm, so it won't be any use for encrypting data in the way you want - it's only for hashing and passwords, really.
If you need additional encryption to https, you could try encrypting the data with TEA http://www.simonshepherd.supanet.com/tea.htm There's an implementation in AS1 here, should be pretty trivial to port to AS3. http://www.simonshepherd.supanet.com/TEAflash.txt HTH, Alias On 09 Apr 2007 09:43:33 -0700, Doug Lowder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
The AS3 corelib has an MD5 algorithm implemented. http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ActionScript_3:resources:apis:libraries Probably the safest way to send data, though, would be to send over HTTPS rather than HTTP. If your data really are of a sensitive nature, then your server should be configured to accept HTTPS/SSL connections. Part of security is also verifying that the server you are communicating with is who you think it is; data encryption alone won't accomplish that, but SSL will.
