Hi All,
I am trying to encrypt password data and tried using md5 to do it. The outcome is so weird hence I would like someone to help me out to get it working. I wrote the code below in CCS Before build insert / update events record form and the text values got stored as I typed it. Do I have to setup something special on my server to use md5 encryption. My platform is Windows Server, IIS6.0, MS SQL Server + PHP 5.0.
$customer->new_pass->SetValue(md5($customer->new_pass->GetValue()));
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Ahaa

I don't know about MSSQL but MySQL has a PASSWORD function to acheive
this. Maybe you should try to use it if MSSQL has it.

Try this instead ...
global $customer;
$pswd = $customer->new_pass->GetValue();
$md5pswd = md5($pswd);
$customer->new_pass->SetValue($md5pswd);

kwl,
I have tried your suggestion and the data went in to the table as typed. md5 didn't encrypt the password or show any error message.
The worst part is not showing any error message. Please your suggestions are welcome.
Cheers,
Ahaa

Looks like you just need to debug your program.
Print the value of $md5pswd:
$pswd = $customer->new_pass->GetValue();
$md5pswd = md5($pswd);
echo $md5pswd;
$customer->new_pass->SetValue($md5pswd);
This should show an encrypted password.

Try something like this within a PHP script outside of CCS ...
<?php
$txt = "Hello World";
$md5txt = md5($txt);
echo ($md5txt);
?>
Do you also get the same results?

md5 has not been coinfigured to work with your PHP installation.
Have you tried contacting your hosting service about this, and what
do they have to say?
