Hi,

I have a table with username and password. The password is encrypted using
mySQL's password function. But when I try to perform a match using PHP,
e.g.,

$query = "select count(*) from auth
 where usrname='$logname' and usrpass=password('$logpass')";

$result = mysql_query($query) or exit ("Cannot run query.");

$count = mysql_result($result, 0, 0);

if ($count > 0)
{
  echo "Success";
  die();
}
else
{
  echo "Unsuccess";
  die();
}

I always get "Unsuccess". It seems password() does not give the same result.
Would someone please point out what I am doing wrong here?

Regards,
Norman
