Query String - encrypt

[Jawahar Rajan]

All,
I often use a querystring in my ASP pages.
for example:
if val > 1 then
Response.redirect "val1.asp?val=1&user=UserID
End if

Is there a way to encrypt the querystring so anyone trying to mis use the
web site will not know what the encryption stands for also when people view
the page source they should not be able to see the QueryString value.

How best can I handle this . Using hidden values still expose the value in
the page source.
Does HTMLEncode help any?

Thanks
Jawahar

you can use the reference from http://www.dalun.com/ftp/crypto.zip
to encrypt or hash your querystring.
