jQuery,sending password via ajax?

Question

I have registration box,and I want users to register via ajax. Is it safe to send password via jquery ajax? If not,can someone explain what to do to secure password data,any

Answer 1

If you want to go one step further with security. You don't even need to collect the users password, you can generate a hash (with salt!) on the client side with something like this http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/sha1.html then you never see the password, only the hash

The only issue with this is javascript is required. you can easily do a fallback however
