hi,
use md5
$cookievalue = md5(username +" " + ID);
so its easy for you to check if the cookie is valid by comparing
the cookie-value with your md5-result .

Is there any opinion on how to pass usernames and ID's securely in a cookie?
Prefer to NOT use mcrypt if possible.
Any pointers or articles would be most appreciated.
