Don't use trim(). Just do this:

 

$md5password = md5($_POST['resetpassword']);

 

EDIT: and remove the following:

 

$_POST = mysql_real_escape_array($_POST);
$_POST = trim_array($_POST);

 

You should never trim() or escape a value that is a password.

 

Since mysql_real_escape_array() is not a built-in PHP function, I'm assuming you have created it to map 'mysql_real_escape_string' to the $_POST array, correct? Don't do that. If a user enters a single and/or double quote in their password (their right to do so), mysql_real_escape_string() will escape it and change the hash. Even though you can simply apply this same methodology to future login/registration/password reset applications, it serves no purpose and should be omitted.
