Thanks Richard for clearing this out but I meant hashing on the first place.
And yet you mentioned mcrypt. Clue is in the name.

You can try the MySQL built in functions. Ie encode(str, key)
insert into test (password) values (encode(mypass,some key));
You can then use the decode() functions in your matching queries.
You also need to consider security of your php code, as the key to decode
will be in the query strings.

there is also SHA-1 bit more overhead, bit more secure than md5

its a little bit more secure then md5 or SHA-1.
BTW: Don't forget the salts..
