Hiyall,
We are developing an .html facility for members to change their password on-line. But, I've hit a snag:
I've assigned the new password to:
<in perl>
$newpasswd
But now need to encrypt it. I know the function to do this is:
crypt($newpasswd,encryption key)
But I don't know what the encryption key should be. Can anyone help?
Regards,
d.
