[PHP] MD5 Password Login Driving me Crazy

2003-02-17 Thread Vernon
For what ever reason I cannot seem to get a user to login using MD5. The
user creates the password on log and it works fine, password encrypted and
all. I test to see if the process is working ok on creation by using the

UPDATE penpals SET password = MD5(password)

and the encrypted passwords match.

When the user goes to login into the page though I have the encrypted
password echo to the page and they match except a 52 on the end of it which
I am assuming is a space or something being picked up on submit or
something. I recall there is a way to trim the field so that it doesn't pick
up spaces but can't recall what it is. Anyone know what it is and if it
could be that?

Thanks

Do _not_ store the password in the database as it is. Instead, store the
md5 hash of the password and compare the md5 hash of user input with
_that_.

Just compare the md5 hashed password with the md5 hashed string from the
database. If the password is like the string, the hashes must equal, too.

The difficult lies IMHO in hashing the password on client side. There are
Javascripts-Modules out there in the Net, but this is rather unsecure.
