    <p>I have a PHP site, and for real time updates and chat I have installed Node.js and its running fine.</p> <p>Both PHP and Node.js have access to the same MySQL database.</p> <p>But the problem is to verify the identity of an user, who is already logged in to the PHP site.</p> <p>I don't want to talk to the PHP app via any means, REST or not. As, to me this will defeat the same purpose of using Node.js, as then each Node.js request, a new PHP page request would be made. </p> <p>What I want is, a encryption and decryption method which is understood by both PHP and node.js</p> <p>So that I can set a cookie with the encrypted value for Node.js request, which will be at updates.mydomain.com subdomain. By reading the cookie, Node.js can decrypt its value and verify the user's identity.</p> <p>So, my question: is there any encrypt and corresponding decrypt method that is supported via both PHP and Node.js, using same encryption key?</p> <p><strong>Updates</strong></p> <p>Actually i m not looking forward to decrypt it on client side :D as then the whole point of decryption is pointless. What i want to do is- </p> <p>1) PHP to generate a cookie encrypted user info and use that cookie for a specific domain like updates.mydomain.com </p> <p>2) Then node.js will get the cookie for each subsequent request, and decrypt the data on server side, using the same encryption key.</p> <p>As u can see, that is why i wanted to know, if there is a common encryption/decryption system between PHP and node.js, so that encrypted data by one can be decrypted by the other and vice versa.</p> <p>This way i can securly transfer the current logged in users identity from PHP to node.js and i don't have to worry about session management of other kinds :)</p> <p>So in short, Encrypt by PHP -> Decrypt by Node.js -> get back same data. Possible?</p> <p>Thanks,<br> Anjan</p>

    1. COI didn't mention decryption in client side, or did i? As decryption mechanism present on client side is like having a cutting edge security system for your home and then leave the remote control for it under ur door mattres :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
