The hash value is *NOT* guaranteed unique. The *pointer* of the lwc_string is both unique, and guaranteed to exist only once for a given string stored in a given state, thus allowing pointer-equality tests. I'm strongly against exposing the internals of how libwapcaplet works in this manner. jmb? D. -- Daniel Silverstone http://www.netsurf-browser.org/ PGP mail accepted and encouraged.
