if you want client to send encrypted form to server. then it must be done using some kind of client side script (javascript?).
I am using C++.
i don't think it is reliable.
Why would it not be reliable if I were using a public-key/private-key encryption library which works both with PHP and C++ ?
why not just use https protocol. all data between client and server will be encrypted.
The data must be encrypted/decrypted going both ways between the client and the server. Does using https automatically do that ? If it does that would be great.

I always thought the GNU public license demanded that any non-free modules, which use any software distributed with this license, make their source code freely available to end users. If this is either not the case or no longer the case, then I will be glad to use GnuPG.
If you are distributing or selling your non-GPL software and you use GPL software with it, then yes, I believe you are required to make your source code available to the end-user too.
