I wouldn't encrypt the ID, but I can't help wonder why you don't want people knowing the company's ID. They can get access to it if you're storing it client-side.
This is like using a single script to view documents where you provide the ID of the document to display. http://localhost/view.php?ID=33 You end up needing a different way to reference which document should be displayed, if you don't want people to know the ID. In this case, I'd end up specifying the name of the document to display. http://localhost/view.php?Name=The%20Pizza%20Caper As you can see, you end up having to deal with spaces and other special characters in the name... Basically, I'd just use the ID and not worry about encrypting it, unless you have a good reason to do so. -Ed > -----Original Message----- > Is it ok to use the company-id or do I have to encrypt the id > using mcrypt (takes some time)? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
