How can I allow a change of password with md5 in mind. When the accounts are being created the passwords are being entered in md5. So now when i display the password field of course they are in md5 (don’t worry for testing purposes i am showing the password in the field instead of displaying hashes or dashes).

So how do i go about changing the passwords then? When they are changed they also need to be in md5.

    Don’t display anything in the password field. Have 3 fields. One for the original password (for security), and 2 for the new password (one for verification).

    When submitted, check the old password, if it’s right, md5 the new one and save it.
