@CIPHER (encrypt/decrypt) has options that will go from simply hiding the values such as a ROT13 to industry standard encryption using 3DES.
You can encrypt just the value, StaffID=hu7ahf8awh89f, or the entire name/value string. The latter option would require you to decrypt the string, tokenize your name/values and manually assign request variables for usage in your application. This can create a lot of overhead (but good security) and it's usually easier to assign a user variable that would key your searches. If your StaffID belongs to a company, assign the CompanyID to a user variable, and then search on both the CompanyID (user) and StaffID (arg) at the same time. If your user types new values for StaffID in the URL manually, they will only get a 'hit' on Staffers at their own Company, which they would normally have access to (in my example).

Is there any way to hide the variables so that they get passed but don't show up in the address bar of the recieving taf. For example is there any way to pass the Staffid but on recieving taf not show the actual staffid value in the address bar as in the link below. //127.0.0.1/leave/UsersStaffProfile.taf?StaffID=451 Thanks for any assistance.
