Process ID

[Anon]

I like to know whether the function
getmypid() would return a unique value when the page is loaded every time and whether different values would be returned when requests are made from two different clients.

The Problem is :

when the request is made from two different browsers at the same time the process ids are same when i used this function.

Whether there is any other way to get unique process id when requests are made from two different clients at the same time.

What do you want to do with the process id?

try session id or sessioning the php pages. u are sure to get a unique id. also try to set a cookie with :
$token = md5 (uniqid ("")); // no random portion
$better_token = md5 (uniqid (rand())); // better, difficult to guess
-(from the php manual http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.uniqid.php)
this is pretty unique...
