Enccrypt and $_POST - El Forum - 09-26-2008

Hi there,
i've got an encrypted string from $this->encrypt->encode("xxx")
this string is:
Code:
DhjXIOAvixAbh2zh0RwGeGCYU66oJxvY/rAJmVTul1RKwTYJ+qXUnkix5FMBOkPgyKt7+pRC8rd/LNSv+afM1w==Now i want to $_POST that string to another page.
And when i echo the input:
Code:
echo($this->input->post('xx'));i get the following output:
Code:
DhjXIOAvixAbh2zh0RwGeGCYU66oJxvY/rAJmVTul1RKwTYJ qXUnkix5FMBOkPgyKt7 pRC8rd/LNSv afM1w==Every << + >> is replaced by <<space>>
I changed $config['permitted_uri_chars'] and allowed th << + >> char, but the only thing that happens is that the << + >> chars are replaced by nothing. So the string cant be decoded due to missing characters.
What's wrong?
Is there a configuration for allowed $_POST chars?
Or any other ideas?

I imagine it's because as you're running it through CI's way of getting post data (instead of $_POST)it is being xss filtered first which removes dangerous characters.
You can just grab it by $_POST if you think that is still safe in your setup (i don't know what your app is!)
