php equivalent for mysql "password"

[Anonymous]

Is there a php-equivalent function for the mysql function "password" ??

This way I don't have to run a mysql-query to encrypt a password.

from a newsgroup:

This function will do the same thing:

function mysql_password($password)
 {
     $nr = 1345345333;
     $add = 7;
     $nr2 = 0x12345671;
     for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($password); $i++)
     {
         if ($password[$i] == ' ' || $password[$i] == '\t')
             continue;
 
         $tmp = ord($password[$i]);
         $nr ^= (($nr & 63)+$add)*$tmp + ($nr << 8);
         $nr2 += ($nr2 << 8) ^ $nr;
         $add += $tmp;
     }
     $h1 = $nr  & (1<<31) - 1;
     $h2 = $nr2 & (1<<31) - 1;
 
     return sprintf("%08lx%08lx", $h1, $h2);
 }

Wait a minutes, you need encrypt a password and insert to MySQL db?

yep, but I want to encrypt the password before the query is build because of the dynamic structure in my pages.
It was easyer for me to encrypt it first and the send it to the database then to adjust the code for building the query.
