My report is just a quibble with the use of term 'more unique'. Something is unique or it isn't. Something can't be "more unique." It's like "almost pregnant"--you are or you aren't--there's no in between. I suggest the following: "If set to TRUE, uniqid() adds additional entropy (using the combined linear congruential generator) at the end of the return value, which increases the likelihood that the result is unique." Test script: --------------- Not applicable. Expected result: ---------------- Not applicable. Actual result: -------------- Not applicable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61420&edit=1
