Requested to every php programmer , never ever ever use md5() to encrypt your passwords. it's not safe.
Go for either one of them -
1) SHA-1
2) SHA-2(SHA-256 , SHA-512)
3) Whirlpool
4) Tiger
5) AES
6)blowfish (recommended 'it's , secure, free and easy)
I wish you safe internet life , thanks :)
md5
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
md5 — Calculate the md5 hash of a string
Descrierea
string md5
( string
$str
[, bool $raw_output = false
] )
Calculates the MD5 hash of str using the
» RSA Data Security, Inc.
MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm, and returns that hash.
Parametri
-
str -
The string.
-
raw_output -
If the optional
raw_outputis set toTRUE, then the md5 digest is instead returned in raw binary format with a length of 16.
Valorile întoarse
Returns the hash as a 32-character hexadecimal number.

Exemple
Example #1 A md5() example
<?php
$str = 'apple';
if (md5($str) === '1f3870be274f6c49b3e31a0c6728957f') {
echo "Would you like a green or red apple?";
}
?>

From the documentation on Digest::MD5:
md5($data,...)
This function will concatenate all arguments, calculate the MD5 digest of this "message", and return it in binary form.
md5_hex($data,...)
Same as md5(), but will return the digest in hexadecimal form.
PHP's function returns the digest in hexadecimal form, so my guess is that you're using md5() instead of md5_hex(). I have verified that md5_hex() generates the same string as PHP's md5() function.

Sometimes it's useful to get the actual, binary, md5 digest.
You can use this function for it:
<?php
function md5bin( $target ) {
$md5 = md5( $target );
$ret = '';
for ( $i = 0; $i < 32; $i += 2 ) {
$ret .= chr( hexdec( $md5{ $i + 1 } ) + hexdec( $md5{ $i } ) * 16 );
}
return $ret;
}
?>

It has been found, that hash('md5', 'string'); is faster than md5($string):

MySQL MD() will not give you the same hash if character set is different.
ex :
<?php
#suppose table_name CHARSET=UTF8
#$md5 = md5('Städte'); # will give you a different hash than MySQL MD5()
#instead use
$md5 = md5(utf8_encode('Städte'));
$r = mysql_query("SELECT *, MD5(`word`) FROM `table_name` WHERE MD5(`word`) LIKE '{$md5}'");
if($r)
while( $row= mysql_fetch_assoc($r) )
print_r($row);
?>

If you want to hash a large amount of data you can use the hash_init/hash_update/hash_final functions.
This allows you to hash chunks/parts/incremental or whatever you like to call it.

Do not use the hex strings returned by md5() as a key for MCrypt 256-bit encryption. Hex characters only represent four bits each, so when you take 32 hex characters, you are only really using a 128-bit key, not a 256-bit one.
Using an alphanumeric key generator [A-Za-z0-9] will also only provide a 192-bit key in 32 characters.
Two different MD5s concatenated in raw binary form, or mcrypt_create_iv(32,MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM) will give you a true 256-bit key string.

This recursive function allow you to hash something in depth using md5().
<?php
function checksum($what, $depth = 1) {
$depth--;
if (!$depth)
return md5($what);
else
return md5(checksum($what, $depth));
}
?>
The function hashed the previous hash to md5() again and again for number of times and returns the last received hash.
Example usage:
<?php
for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) {
echo "$i. ".checksum("test", $i)."<br />";
}
?>
It can be used for security purposes.

If you want to replicate CPAN Digest::MD5's function md5_base64 in PHP, use this code:
<?php
function md5_base64 ( $data )
{
return preg_replace('/=+$/','',base64_encode(pack('H*',md5($data))));
}
?>

The complement of raw2hex
<?php
function hex2raw( $str ){
$chunks = str_split($str, 2);
for( $i = 0; $i < sizeof($chunks); $i++ ) {
$op .= chr( hexdec( $chunks[$i] ) );
}
return $op;
}
?>
