in message : Thanks for the reply. My question is how do I handle this MD5 algorithm?
For
: example, I have a login page, how do I use the javascript?
Please respond after responses, not before them.
You don't use javascript to do this. You do it on the server-side. If you
need a MD5 function already written to work in ASP, then go here:
http://www.frez.co.uk/freecode.htm#md5
The function is md5. I call it with:
eStr = md5(str)
I put it in it's own file and I include it into any page I need. A starter
example...
<%@ Langauge = "VBScript" %>
<%
Option Explicit
Response.Buffer = True
%>
<!--#include virtual="/asp/nocache.asp"-->
<!--#include virtual="/asp/md5.asp"-->
<%
dim username, password, ePassword, method
method = Request.ServerVariables("REQUEST_METHOD")
if method = "POST" then ' form has been posted
username = Server.HTMLEncode(Replace(Request.Form("username"),"'","''"))
password = Server.HTMLEncode(Replace(Request.Form("password"),"'","''"))
' form validation
' get password from database if username exists
ePassword = md5(password)
if ePassword = cPassword then
' write to log
' validate logon
session("user") = username
' redirect to welcome
else
' report error to user
' write to log
' redirect to logon
end if
end if
%>
<!-- display logon form -->
My nocache.asp page:
<%
with Response
.Expires = -1
.ExpiresAbsolute = Now() - 1
.AddHeader "pragma", "no-cache"
.AddHeader "cache-control", "private"
.CacheControl = "no-cache"
end with
%>
HTH...
