Hello World

I thought 'encryption' was supposed to make the data transmitted from
user to server into an unreadable block of garbage. Able to be decoded
by the server of course - but of no use to any one else who tapped into
the transmission or the file stored on the server.

So what's the go? How does SSL make such things as credit card details
secure?? The spiel I have just read talks about a 'digest' but all that
is doing is verifying that the information you sent to the user is
coming back unaltered.

Why send data to a user for them to send back to you? How do I mangle a
credit card number and decode at my end???

thanks in advance
