in reply to Re^3: Using filepath method to identify an .html page
in thread Using filepath method to identify an .html page
The perl code will produce the same hash for "abc.html" as for
"bca.html"
In any case, the likelihood of a hash collision for any non-trivial website is substantial. If you hash 100 files you have about a 40% chance of a collision.
If you hash 220 files, the likelihood is about 90%
