Hello, im new to this forums, im sorry if this is wrong section. [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /] I want to make a script in php that what the user writes for the password gets converted to md5 value and inserted into database table = varbinary. Example: Username: user1 Password userpw userpw = gets converted to md5 (varbinary) and get inserted into the mssql database. [b]i already tryed this: [/b] $password = stripslashes($_POST['pw']); $enc = md5($password); $finalpw = "enc"; and didnt worked, maybe was me that did it wrong, and code is wrong. im still a noobie :) thank you, i hope you understand what im trying to do.
