Either string should be treated the same - try putting in the code:
print "Length of abc123: <?=strlen("abc123")?><br>";
...then the same for 123abc, and you should see them both print on the page
as 6. If you are getting a different result when dealing with form fields,
then something is going wrong in the process.
First try using $HTTP_POST_VARS["password"] instead of $password, to make
sure you are actually looking at the value passed from the form.
