md5 encryption function - ca2k - 31.05.2011

Sorry, I have been searching around wiki but I have not found the part of MD5 encryption, perhaps someone has written about it in here?

I am more into php but if you can tell why GM sends uppercase MD5 encryption or a way how to send normal encryption so my php code will work with the GM I will be thankful

Example if you dont understand what I mean:

md5 Encryption for 'hi' is:

49f68a5c8493ec2c0bf489821c21fc3b

and from our application it comes as:

49F68A5C849EC2C0BF489821C21FC3B

So there comes the problem, php does not think its the same PW.

Yes, I know, I can call strtoupper() on the variable between md5 hashing and storing it but its just so much work and if there is a simple way by changing something in GM its a waste of time.

/or I guess its time to switch to Whirlpool.
