All, I'm (still) working on creating my own CMS, and would like to ask a question that I should have thought about had I planned my code properly!
I'm authenticating users and currently using the PASSWORD() function of MySQL, however I realise that this is still transmitting the password in plain text and therefore can be hacked. Is there a way of encrypting the information BEFORE it is send to the server? I'm googling at the mo, but the docs that tell you how to use the crypt() of PHP or the PASSWORD() of MySQL don't seem to tell you how to transmit secure data.
