Works! Great! Nobody (even me!) can not understand user passwords! Thanx!

Re: [PHP] MsSQL PASSWORD()
Zliy Pes, (I have no idea what this name means - trust it doesn't mean that you'll be coming after me with a sharp knife!) My current project runs on Win2k, MsSQL 2k, and PHP 4.0.6 My problem is that i can not enable md5 extension because of Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\windows\php\extensions/php_mcrypt.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found. in Unknown on line 0 So,... Noted that someone else has replied otherwise - possibly the question has now 'gone away', but... with the Windows-ification of PHP come a few problems, not the least of which is the \ or / issue. If you notice above, there is a mixture of slash directions. In php.ini check out the extensions directory definition, and then the php_mcrypt.dll line. Ensure that the slash direction is consistent.

[PHP] Includes in your document root (was: Re: [PHP] MsSQL PASSWORD())
In that case, forget what I said ';) But since you can't say this enough, here is it once more: *** Always remember to keep those includes *out of* your document root; This prevents accidental displaying of source code or (which I heard on this list could even be worse) out-of-context execution. bvr.
