Hi ! Thanks for the reply, it's as I was thinking about ! I went on the web to get some more infos about that, and I found this article: http://www.developerfusion.com/show/4325/ So some tell this is a good idea, others say it's not, so I am lost :( :) -----Message d'origine----- De : RSnake [mailto:rsnake () shocking com] Envoyé : vendredi 8 octobre 2004 01:42 À : webappsec () securityfocus com Cc : Bénoni MARTIN Objet : Re: Web Forms filtered with SQL constraints Nothing you do at the client side can be hidden. I can write a client that downloads the source, or watch it via a proxy, or look at the cache, etc.... don't even bother trying. You should consider anything client side as protection from inadvertant mistakes by users only, and you should always have a fall back filter in place to catch the errors before they do any damage.
