Display of encrypted string

[son]

I would like to see an encrypted string on my screen (just for testing). I use:

$pass = testing;$enc = SHA('$pass');var_dump ($enc);

but it does not show. Is this not possible for security reasons?Son

The function's name is sha1() , not sha().There's also md5(), and if you're really into it, there's also the hash() function.As a side note, you should enable error display when testing, so that you could see such errors.... you know, a message like 'Call to an undefined function "hash"'. To do that, add

ini_set('display_errors', 'On');

at the very top of your PHP code.
