I have flash movie that has form fields and then sends the info to php that mails it to the specified address. It’s just a flash contact us form.

But what I need is once the info is sent from flash to php - before php mails it - i need the mail encrypted. is this possible?

thanks.

do you want to be able to decrypt it? out of curiosity, why do you need to encrypt it? if it’s something like a password, i would look into using md5 or sha1.
