Ask YC: Best Practices for User Authentication

No difficulty in implementing SSL, but I'm a student and don't have much money. Granted, this is a temporary solution until I'm able to get some money together for a dedicated IP and SSL cert.

You can do SSL very cheaply these days. GoDaddy has certificates for $15/year. Dreamhost gives you a dedicated IP for an extra $4/month.

Given the fact that how cheap it is these days to get SSL certificates and static IPs I would take the route of SSL rather than going thru this untested (read: not well tested) route of JavaScript encryption.

Please don't spam your URL, especially not as your signature. That's (very) bad form.
