Alvin,
the values for Pass in the table have been passed into the table using the
password('') command and I have also veiwed he content of the tables to
confirm it. IE the value (i've only got one row in the table at the moment)
I have passed to the table IS encrypted.
this is the insert command:
$query = "insert INTO Login_Table(Login,Pass)
            values ('$Login', password('$Pass'))";

The most puzzling thig is that this works, but the use of the same (mySQL)
password function, in the SELECT statement doesnt work.


AAAAHHHH
