I'm storing some passwords in a database using PHP+MySQL
I realise that MD5 is not a secure method to store passwords, but for now I'm using it mainly to ensure that regardless of the length of the password, it can be stored in the database easily.
For that I'm hashing the password using PHP and storing it in the database.
Is there any practical limit on the length of a password I can store using this manner?
(security is not of importance here, I am using the hashing only for convenience)
