Change password
I created a form with two text boxes, but does not save the password in the correct format in the table...
Hi calangoloco,
Joomla! doesn't save passwords, just a copy of a hash. You need to add a Custom Code action to your form On Submit event and add the Joomla! code there to create the hash and save it. You can find the code in the Joomla! Users component somewhere.

I followed your tip, and researched hash, found in the Joomla documentation an helper that does encryption. The address of the documentation is:
http://api.joomla.org/cms-3/classes/JUserHelper.html
Code to get the id of the logged user in DBRead:
Code that calculates and sets the password field the password hash :
Then a dbsave to save.
