Hi,

I know this is highly unlikely... but I have this code:

$hash = md5(uniqid($message));

where message is a string that the user will input.

How likely is it that this hash might be repeated?

I'm using the hash as a primary key in a database - the user gets sent the hash as part of a url to retrieve the details of that database row.

(its a basic send to a friend e-card system).

Is there any way that the same hash could have been generated more than once?

Cheers,
Guy
