Hi. I've read some of the documentation on how to use use pgcrypto, but I still can't 
seem to get it working properly.

All I want to do is encrypt a field (using the AES algorithm) before inserting into 
the table, and consequently decrypt that same field when I pull it out.

Example (my table is called "encode_test" and it has one field "username"):

INSERT INTO encode_test(username) 
values(encrypt('testpassword','key','aes-cbc/pad:none'));

SELECT decrypt(username,'key','aes-cbc/pad:none') FROM encode_test;

But when I insert and select it out, all I see are question marks (?). What am I doing 
wrong? Can anyone give me a concrete example to follow. All the examples in the 
documentation are not very clear.

Thanks,
Dylan
