Re: Regular Expression Help: genreate alphanumeric, 8 chars

Shaun -- [No need to post twice...] ..and then Shaun said... % % Hi, Hi! % % I need to generate a lowercase alphanumeric passwrord thats 8 characters % long, has anyone got a function that can do this? This isn't really a regular expression question, since you'd use an expression to check if a string matched your requirements but not to generate such a string. A function should be easy: just loop 8 times over spitting out a random char between a and z or 0 and 9 (use rand() to generate a number between 0 and 35 and then map that to the char). % % Thanks for your help Enjoy :-) HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) davidtg@justpickone.org * society and not sufficient moral courage.
