patheticsam Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Hi! I just have a little question. I made a register form on my website and when a user register his password the password is md5 encrypted into mySQL database. I want to make an admin section on my site where I can see the md5 encrypted password....Is there a way to do that? thanks !

premiso Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 MD5 is a 1-way hash. There is no way to view the actual password, just the hashed version. It is this way so some people do not get too smart for themselves and try to hack certain accounts using that password; I would suggest leaving it as a 1-way hash.
