FYI, I heard that 7.4 has a md5 function on board, so you wouldn't have to depend on the php function. A better choice IMO. This way you can change your interface to another script language and still have the functionality. As to the length: why not simply make it varchar and let pg handle the storage? IIRC there is no difference between 2 filled varchar(10) fields and 2 filled varchar fields. > And is stable the 7.4.2? o r i must wait to the RHDB next release to > upgrade my postgres?. > > Thankx 4 all > > Regards > > > Joe Nilson > > -- 07:11-07:14 Fedora Core release 1 (Yarrow) Linux 2.4.22-1.2188.nptl
