    Question

    Hello,

    When passing variables from one page to the next using querystring eg....
    "MembersCenter.asp?uid=123&pwd=mypassword" - the variables now show in the browsers titlebar.
    Is there a way to get it NOT to show there!!??

    I know this might not be the best way to send info like uid/pwd, but in the application I'm using
    it, it really does not have to be a major "secret". I would however like it NOT to display.

    Thanks all,
    T

    Encrypt the username and password. There is code on this website for simple encryption.

    Querystrings display in the title bar. If you are passing data to a page that is sensitive, don't use querystrings.

    I bet you are using get as the form method. Try using POST.
