Location: Jönköping, Sweden                I've been thinking recently about 
one thing.
I've created a module that uses OpenSSL on my server to encrypt stuff in my 
MySQL database. (dont' have a license for r2 with the Crypto class..).

If I have a field with some text and call my module to encrypt its content, is 
the text sent to the server app in clear text prior to beeing encrypted? I 
guess it is cuz it's the server that calls OpenSSL..

Is it the same with the new Crypto class?

I guess I knew that already but I had to ask 
I would need SSL then so that when users log in to my app their credentials 
would not be "stealable"

Location: Jönköping, Sweden                I wonder if anyone know if 
jCryption could be used in WE?
http://www.jcryption.org/info/
It's no replacement for SSL but it would add a liiiiittle security when SSL 
isn't available for my apps login form?
It's a client-side encryption thingy
