Dear group,

For a log-in page I have created a mysql db and user registers
with a user name and password. The password field is encrypted with

$passwd = sha1($_REQUEST['passwd']);

I insert the $passwd in mysql_insert. The password gets
encrypted and stored in mysql. Now I want to check if the user has
entered the correct password when he logs in. How can I do that. Any
help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
