I have a register form called server with fields Name, IP, Password. The form will send the data prevously filled by operator, but the problems is:
How the field Password will travel until my insert verification code ?
some short example:
The form
<form method=POST action=myActPage.php>
<input type=PASSWORD name=PWD value="" />
<input type=SUBMIT value=GO />
</form>
THE PROBLEM IS HERE --- BETWEEN --- THE TRAFFIC --- password can be stolen here.. how to prevent it to happen?
The PHP Action Page
if ($_POST) {
$pwd = $_POST['PWD'];
$pwd = md5($pwd);
$response = mysql_query("INSERT INTO tbl_pwd ('pwd') VALUES ('$pwd') ");
}
Thanks for any idea on this matter.
EDITED: I really spent almost two hours searching on stackoverflow and I found nothing on this specifc matter, thats is why the question. No question about the "traffic between form and php action script" Important: I'm looking for a solution without the use of SSL over HTTP.
