There's no problem using that hash extension. The extension is present in both php.net distributions and Zend Core distributions, so it's totally fine to use it. I just didn't know it was being used when I wrote the requirements page for the ZF manual. :-) I have updated that section in the manual, but after ZF 1.0.1 was released so the change isn't reflected in the online manual. One should be aware of PHP extensions used, if you use Zend Core. Zend Core's default install leaves some extensions disabled, even though the extensions are present in the product. You just have to enable the given extension. Regards, Bill Karwin
