Help with Password Encoding/Decoding?


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Trying to design a "change password" tool. On my signup code I'm using base64_encode, now I am trying to decode it on the change password screen and having issues. Yes I am very new to this.

I keep returning a fail response with this. Help?
