• Point taken. i did provide a link.
• Were the question "How do i use Crypt::Blah", i would have had no problem.
• I don't care if things are mis-spelled, or in poor grammer ... whatever your first language. I do not downvote for that.
• I like short, but i also like to know i am not doing someone homework.

I see alot of people in the CB wondering why they got downvoted for this or that, and i thought it was friendly to let people know, so they don't wonder. <sarcasm> I see i was mistaken ... i will downvote as an Anonymous Coward from here on out. <sarcasm>

Thanks, I think it was very unfair for you to downvote me. First of all, I am new to Perl. I had a bad experience with cgi.pm and later on decided that cause of the problem. I found cgi.pm may have a problem parsing "~" in web address field. After that i am bit careful about using any *.pm Encryption/Decryption is a tiny part of code that I am working on. I really did not want to write alot. I realized it would be useful to obtain someone's small, not so serious encryption/decryption code. If you have looked at anyother posts of mine, you would realize that I did indeed go on to explain in details. Anyhow, thanks for your help!
