From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Windows 98 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: MD5 option for 128 bytes long digest (standard) It's a feature request regarding the MD5 string function. The standard MD5 hash algorithm provides a 16 bytes long digest. PHP's MD5, even though it says it's "using the RSA Data Security, Inc. MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm", is non-standard: gives out a 32 bytes long digest. I like the MD5 function very much, but I don't like it being described as using MD5 if it doesn't act like the standard MD5 algorithm, so my suggestion is that you should at least provide an option to choose between "32 bytes digest (non-standard)" and "16 bytes digest (standard)" modes. It also would help a lot if source code/reference to PHP's unique MD5 implementation (which I can't seem to find ANYWHERE on the net) would be made available.
