Is there an easy way to encode and then decode a string in PHP? It's probably base64, but I'd like to add a custom string to make it un-decodable without the string. I hope I haven't lost anyone.

How would I decode that?

I don't know if there is an easier way to do this, but here is an idea:

base64 encode it, then use str_replace to replace certain characters (for example 1 with a9di). Then you just have to reverse that algorithm and base64_decode it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I figured something along those lines would be my best bet.

You could do a base64 encode and then salt it with your own algorithm. It's the same concept as md5 and salting passwords.
