Re: encryption decryption without mcrypt?

Nobody out there has any suggestion of how to encrypt and decrypt a string without mcrypt? I can't use md5() because I'm not comparing two things, I'm trying to pass a new string from page to page without it being readable. It doesn't have to be extremely secure, it's not financial data, but it shouldn't be easy to decrypt by the casual user. And I don't have control over my configuration (which does not have mcrypt installed) so it has to be something I can create in php3. How about a simple algorithm for either a single key or public/private key method? ...Dave Dave Jones wrote: > > I'm using php on a shared server and have no control over the > configuration.
