I am wondering how to translate this perl code to php. It seems the
md5 function is the same when using hexadecimal in perl but I'm not
sure what this md5->add code does.

Perl:
my $md5ShopPassString = Digest::MD5->new;
$md5ShopPassString->add("$ShopId");
$md5ShopPassString->add("$OrderId");
$ShopPassString = $md5ShopPassString->hexdigest;

PHP:
md5($ShopId . $OrderId);

These are not equal. Thanks in advance for any .

I'd suggest you find out what the md5->add function does before trying
to convert it. Try a perl newsgroup.

Not suprisingly it concatenates it.

If they really aren't the same (you didn't provide examples) then try
using the Base64 method in Perl.
But as Jerry points out we're getting OT here.
