    Cookie protection

    Hi guy,

    Is there any way to protect the browser's cookie, prevent users from
    modifying it?

    Seems some browsers, such as Opera, provides a very easy to use
    interface for user to modify the cookie value.


    Rdgs,
    Howa

    No. If you wish to protect information from your users, keep it on your
    server, and use only temporary cookies for transaction integrity.
