Hello from a web design newbie, When a user logs in, I'm using a cookie to save the value of the user name so that I can reference that to pull user information throughout the site. I noticed that when I look at the cookie that is stored on the client system, the info in the cookie is displayed as plain text. How do I encrypt that info? I don't need strong encryption I just don't want the info to be painfully obvious to anyone just "exploring" the client system. How do you do this in php3? How about php4? TIA
