[PHP] Encrytion From: Abe (abe <email protected>)

Hi Guys,

I am not a security person - But just a thought I wanted to get my head
round. When a PHP script is used to encrypt data to pass from server to
browser -

How can this be done b'cos if someone fills in something on a form and hits
submit it can't be enrypted by the script until it gets to the server - at
the same time if the server needs to send something to the browser then it
cannot be sent encypted as the browser cannot decrypt it. I guess U could
use SSL but then what is PHP encrytion mostly used for or am I missing
something?

This may be trivial to most but I just wondered ...

Thanks
Abe
