-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I got messaged off list which I don't appreciate. But, yes PHP5 only or you could replace the lines for PHP4 and on: $keys[] = mhash( MHASH_SHA1, sha1( $array[$x] ) ); With: if( !function_exists( mhash ) ) { $keys[] = sha1( sha1( $array[$x] ) ); } elseif( !function_exists( sha1 ) ) { $keys[] = md5( md5( $array[$x] ) ); } else { $keys[] = mhash( MHASH_SHA1, sha1( $array[$x] ) ); } That will look to see if the 'mhash()', 'sha1()' functions exist and use them accordingly.
