</form>

if click on Search btn url will redirect to

search.php?Search=parametr

how i can Encode This Parametr As Base64 ?

Answer 1

It should be as simple as that . If you want to send the encoded parameter in the url you have to encode it before your html response. Else this encoding makes no sense anyway.

$base64 = base64_encode($parameter);
