texte = I've read in the archives that you can compare encrypted passwords, as longas they're not encrypted with a seed. So I append a username and password toa database like so:....&user=[url][uppercase][header1][/uppercase][/url]&pass=[encrypt][header2][/encrypt]&...header2 is set to uppercase before it is encrypted, using a [text] context.The user logs in with a form. The search reads thusly:[search db=adatabase.db&equserdatarq=[url][uppercase][user][/uppercase][/url]&eqpassdatarq=[encrypt][pass][/encrypt]]Again, the pass is made uppercase in a [text] context beforehand. If bothusername and password are found, they are logged in.This works fine for some users, but others simply cannot log in, no matterwhat. I've also tried various combinations of [url]ing, but it doesn't seemto help. The passwords that don't work have no strange characters.Help?-- James P.
