However, I went and re-read them and it seems that it's the usage of the function which was producing inconsistent results. Encrypting with cf_encrypt will produce some random characters at the end of the string and if comparing using a where clause as in: where cf_encrpyt(form.password,

Admittedly not very helpful, but for users passwords, I've been using HASH rather than encrypt/descrypt... I can't speak for Dave, but from what I've read on the Allaire forums, the regular Encrypt/Decrypt function produces inconsistent results. Obviously not a good thing! I've just put

If I remember correctly, the Encrypt routine will often place some bogus characters on the end of the encrypted string. These characters can be stripped off, and it will decrypt fine. But I don't remember the source of Define 'bogus'. I seem to remember that strings returned from Encrypt

So, the problems were with the unofficial funcs? If so, I'm not going to worry about them. Again, if you don't use the official funcs, you reap what you sow. ;) No, this is how the standard cf_decrypt/encrypt functions operate. Another problem which arose were some strange ascii characters

I've run some tests using cfusion_encrypt and cfusion_decrypt on CF5, and they seem to work fine. Perhaps there's something funky going on with how you're feeding in the string and key, or with the data you're pulling from the DB? --- Billy Cravens Web Development, EDS [EMAIL PROTECTED]
