Hi all,
This one has got me scratching my head...
I do enter with phpmyadmin a string and use the password function
on it... How do I get the value of the string back? Or better, how
do I compare user input to that value...?
I thought this would work and form what I have read it should work
(providing the field where the string is entered is called "pass"):
"... where pass = password('$inputted_var')!"
Even if I do enter the value directly as a parameter in the
password function it plain doesn't work...
What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks in advance,
nmk
