Re: Random Password Generator

This is what I am using and it works rather well <?

        function password($length=8)
        {
                /*
                ** Set pool of possible characters
                */
                $Pool = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123456789";
                $Pool .= "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

                for($index = 0; $index < $length; $index++)
                {
                        $sid .= substr($Pool,
                                (rand()%(strlen($Pool))), 1);
                }

                return($sid);
        }

        // Seed the generator
        srand(time());

$passwd = password(8); ?> I hope this helps At 09:49 PM 6/13/00 +0200, Svetlin Simeonov wrote:

Hi guys, is there anyone have a good solution for random password generator ? I think something about this $newpass = ""; $string = "ABCDabcd1234"; for ($i=0; $i<8; $i++ ) { $newpass.= substr(rand(0,sizeof($string)),1,$string); } -------------------------------------------------------- Unfortunatly no one can be told what the MATRIX is ! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
