MD5 encrypt ftp password

I have encrypted the password in php and store into the MySQL database using
PHP Code:
 md5('$ftppassword'


is there a way to decrypt back because I need the plain password in order to access the FTP through PHP with ftp enabled.

Hi

No, md5(), only calculates the md5 hash of a string, so there is no way to decode a string that is stored in a md5 hash! Use some other method to store the password, so you can decode it if you need to!



F!
