Im having trouble authenticating users by deriving theire username & password from 2 cookies, then looking for a match in the users table of the mysql database.
I have determined that the problem lies in matching the user with its corresponding row in the mysql database.

(p.s. - try logging in with user:ramonezrule pass:yaegp)
One solution i came up with, but havent tested, is:
When i inserted the row for the user on registration, I used the mysql password function. Will I have to use any special function to retrieve it correctly?
