When you're insering a new password:
INSERT INTO user SET password=PASSWORD('secret');
But you can't retrieve the original password. If a user forgets/looses
his/her password, just reset a password with something else, and send
him/her that new password
And when you want to check an inputted p
you can use the password() mysql function to crypt it.
you cannot retrieve the encrypted password -- only compare input
(password() the input) against the saved encrypted password. if the
resulting text matches, the password is good. if not, the authentication
in your application should fail.
generate a new one if it wasn't.

I used the function password() if that helps but of course you can't
"decode" it.
