Inside my code I'm generating hashes of URLs, (which are practically of unbounded length). I'm currently using sha1(), which I know has a tiny chance of a collision, but I have up to 255 bytes to store the hash in so feel that I might as well use that available space to lower the chance of collision even further. Is there either: Ano...
This is one is for any of you Doctrine users out there. I have a PHP CLI daemon process that checks a table every n seconds to find entries that haven't been processed. It's basically a FIFO.

I'm trying to implement a stateful web service in PHP using the SOAP extension. (Yes I know that web services are supposed to be stateless; all I really care to persist is some form of a session ID so I don't need to authenticate with every call to the service). PHP.net's API documentation is somewhat lacking on this, and there isn't mu...

I'm working on a new Wordpress site that is exhibiting some strange behavior. I pass it a URL with GET parameters in it, and the $_GET parameter is not populated. I see in the $_SERVER parameter that the REQUEST_URI has the full URL there, completed with the ?var=value part, but no love in the $_GET variable. The URL is being redirect...
