RE: [PHP] md5 encrypt problem

[John W. Holmes]

 Having a wee bit o' trouble with a simple md5 script:
 
   for ($x=1 ; $x 62 ; $x++) {
 
   $mypass = sports . $x;
   $mypass = md5($mypass);
 
   dbConnect(UPDATE user_login SET password = '$mypass' WHERE
 school_id
 = $x);
 
   }
 
 For some reason, when I attempt to login with my md5'd user supplied
 password I get no match.  Bizarre, haven't had this problem
 before...

Is the 'password' column in your database a CHAR or VARCHAR column with
a length of 32? If it is, then show the code where you validate someone
logging in.

Exactly right, John.

Sorry to clutter the forum -- it was a varchar(30)!

Thanks,

[PHP] md5 encrypt problem

[CF High]

Hey all.

Having a wee bit o' trouble with a simple md5 script:

  for ($x=1 ; $x 62 ; $x++) {

  $mypass = sports . $x;
  $mypass = md5($mypass);

  dbConnect(UPDATE user_login SET password = '$mypass' WHERE school_id
= $x);

  }

For some reason, when I attempt to login with my md5'd user supplied
password I get no match.  Bizarre, haven't had this problem
before...

Any help always appreciated
