I would like to create a site that will require passwords, however, I cannot find out any tutorials on how to make it so that the passwords are not in plain text but in some other medium.
I looked and I couldn't find any. Does anyone know of any good ones?

Learning PHP would be a good idea for this.

Generally passwords are stored via hashing them. There's lots of stuff about using md5 and maybe a salt to hash passwords, for example. Basically, you send the password through a one-way function (ex: something involving md5()) and compare the output of that function with what you have stored. |
