Erata Entry: Chapter 18, Script 18.10 Error

[Steven Willett]

Hi,

Just noticed the following code error for the

password_hash()

function used on page 626, line 34.

The code base shown in the book only passes 1 parameter,

// Incorrect number of parameters
$ph = password_hash($p);

This function requires 2 parameters as outlined in the PHP docks here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.password-hash.php

This should probably be: (unless you wish to us a differnet constant based on your own project needs)

$ph = password_hash($p, PASSWORD_DEFAULT);

Hope this will help someone learning that may have gotten stuck on this project.

Thanks for catching that and for letting me know! I'll pass it along to the publisher.
