What about using the md5() function, and store them that way. Then when one is sent to the server encrypt it and so a string compare on the two encrypted text strings. Like strings encrypted with md5 will result in the same encrypted string. Of course there is no way to decrypt them. This is all done on server side though, so perhaps you should utilize SSL to send them over the internet. HTH -Brad
