Q:

So if md5( ) generates the most secure hash, why would you ever use the less secure crc32( ) and sha1( )?

Answer Crypto usage in PHP is simple, but that doesn’t mean it’s free. First off, depending on the data that you’re encrypting, you might have reasons to store a 32-bit value in the database instead of the 160-bit value to save on space. Second, the more secure the crypto is, the longer is the computation time to deliver the hash value. A high volume site might be significantly slowed down, if frequent md5() generation is required.

Q:

What is anonymous FTP and why would you use it

Answer

Anonymous FTP enables users to connect to a host without using a valid login and password. Usually, anonymous FTP uses a login called anonymous or guest, with the password usually requesting the user's ID for tracking purposes only. Anonymous FTP is used to enable a large number of users to access files on the host without having to go to the trouble of setting up logins for them all. Anonymous FTP systems usually have strict controls over the areas an anonymous user can access

A PHP Session persist the user information to be used later. For example, user name, password, shopping item details.

Each session is identified by a unique Id number for every visitor. The first step to use PHP session is to start the session. The starting session must precede the operations like HTML or the other.
