username and password in database or in script?

which is better and safer to place/stored the username or password when login is in database or in script?

I made a websites that require only the admin can change and edit or delete some profiles so i decided to put a security a password in some page of my sites..now my question is which is better to put the password in database or in script .?

It depends on what script you mean if you are talking about JavaScript (I know you are probably not but you get my point) its not that safe but if its in php (or any other server-side code then you will be okay) I must say I don't quiet get why you would store the pass in a database apart from anting else you have to have a table just for that one password so its a bit of a waste of time and memory.

Well, the password to access the database has to be stored in the script somewhere, doesn't it?

but its much easier to change the password in database in case you want to change it.

It's more in the design than anything regardless of whether you use DB or script (server-side).
