Thanks for your reply garymardell. That sound really easy.

I'm new to this and there is something I am not understanding here. I did not realize that this hash that is produced by the sha1 and stored in the database could be accurately compared with an encrypted password from the login page ... I thought they would be different inspite of the password being the same.
