Their is the inbuild function in mysql called password() which allow you to 
save password in encripted format. you dont need to write an extra script for it

Pls check below querys

Insert Query
$sql = "INSERT INTO $db_table (`uid`, `pass`, `name`, `add`, `cont_no`) VALUES 
('$_POST[uid]', password('$_POST[pass]'), '$_POST[name]', '$_POST[address]', 
'$_POST[number]')";

Where $_Post[pass] is the name of password textfield

Select Query

$sql = SELECT * FROM $db_table WHERE uid = '$_POST[uid]' AND pass = 
password('$_POST[pass]');

want to create a MySQL table that stores usernames in plaintext and
 passwords in a good secure encrypted form. I want to be able inspect and
 or change the password as necessary, I am anticipating that when I do
 this, or add a new entry I would enter a passphrase. I don't want to
 store the password in plain text. What is the best way of approaching
 this?
