Sure, mysql.com and seasrch for crypt. Not sure why this is asked on a
PHP list since it has nothing to do with PHP.
b) every language has a crypt function
Then I guess it's okay to have crypt questions/answers on "every language"
list.
Sure whatever, its just this list is specifically about PHP and DB use
so PHP's crypt() is pretty much the lamest recommendation since most DB
sngines have lots of good encryption and you can use it in your queries.
So then they need look in theri DB's documentation for what their
type/version offer. At that point it has 100% nothing to do with PHP :)
If they just want to crypt() some string for an /etc/passwd type system
then they need to post to a PHP basics list not a DB specific one.
Not really a big deal but why have specofoc lists if they arn't kept
specific :)
