Mike, no matter wich technology are you yusing to make your pages (JSP, ASP,
Perl, anything ):
The only "public", "widely adopted" and "resonably safe" mechanism for
encrypted http connections are through SSL (secure socket layer). If you do
it all the client/server communication will be encrypted. Thus you can send
any piece of data without encrypting since only the request author will be
able to read it.
If you need to encrypt singular pieces of data to send them over an insecure
channel the client software will need a decrypt tool. You choose any common
encoding schemes like PGP your life will be easier. However the clientside
decryp/encrypt tool will always be a matter of concern, due to the client
environment's unprectictability.
