The ODBTP package includes 2 versions of php_odbtp.dll. One for PHP4 and
the other for PHP5. You need to place the correct php_odbtp.dll file in
the same directory where php_mssql.dll and the other extensions are
located. For PHP4, this should be php\extensions, and php\ext for PHP5.
You then need to place the follwwing entry into the php.ini file:
extension=php_odbtp.dll
Place it in the same section where the "extension=php_mssql.dll" entry is
located.
We, you and I, have now also got the stored procedure call working. Next
step is to make it pretty

Greetings!
I'm developing a login system in php and wondering if someone could
possibly provide some advice, as I'm still relatively new to php.
First, I'm limited to using cookies only for my session variables, so
for instance, remembering users who wish to not have to login to the
site each time they visit. I obviously don't want to put the user's
login information in the cookie in plain text, so I was thinking perhaps
that I'd use md5 hashed values instead. So in the database I'd have 4
fields for the user information, ie; username, username_md5, password,
password_md5. Does this make any sense, or is there some other better way?
Also, I've ready about using session ID's.. for instance, how they are
used in the phpBB forum. Would it be better to use them? I don't quite
understand the purpose for it, but if someone could expain it, it would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Armando
