Hello,
I have a system that uses certain id info. This info is stored in a session
cookie in MD5 format. At certain parts of the code I need to update or
insert to MySQL DB with that id info value in cleartext. Is this possible?
If so, how to put this to a sql query?
$sqlquery = "insert into x_table (team_id,number,) values
('$team_id','$number')
$team_id is the MD5 formatted cookie value and I need to put it to the
x_table column team_id in cleartext.
Thanks a lot

MD5 values are hashes, not encryptions. There's nothing to "decrypt".
It's good for storing the results of some value and than when the person
sends the MD5 back at a later point you can make sure it still matches
the desired value by re-hashing the original value again.
