Storing passwords in MD5 or another hash is an excellent idea because it is
generally not possible to decrypt them (if the user uses a bad password they
I was comparing it to what I was thinking about. Like if the field in the
table (database) have a username and password. Then you encrypt it with
features like this, then how can it be de-crypt if I had like a thousand
users account. It was just a thought in my mind.
Now based on your responses
I think that generally you do not want passwords to be decryptable. What
I normally do is try to encrypt whatever the user enters as a password
and compare the resulting encrypted string with what's in the database
to make sure they correspond. If the encrypting function is univocal

Can it be de-encrypt??? I don't see how since you just use the function
md5().

If you don't need the file to be changed to contain md5 encrypted
passwords use *fgetcsv() *to read the contenta,
then use *md5()* on the password and insert it into database using
mysql_query. No need to write a new file.

Oh, and if you wanted to do it after you inserted, you could
just do:
mysql_query("UPDATE tablename SET pwfieldname = md5(pwfieldname);");

Off the top of my head I would use:
$f = fopen("filename.csv","r");
$data = fread($f,filesize("filename.csv"));
fclose($f);
$split = explode("\n",$data);
$counter = 0;
foreach($split AS $row)
{
$myarray = explode(",",$row);
$myarray[2] = md5($myarray[2]);
$split[$counter
10 matches
