Best way to encript variables for shopping cart.

So sorry if this doesnt belong in this section but i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to encrypt sensitive information (i.e credit card details) passed from a form to a database/email?

 

I am building a shopping cart and apart from protecting against SQL injection was wondering if there are any other ways to protect information.

 

Cheers

You shouldn't have to deal with the credit card numbers at all. That should be done by the CC processing company's script, as a plugin to your site. You don't really even want to try to store information like that, unless you have the millions of dollars to pay the claims when your database server gets hacked.
