I use something like...
function randString($sequence_length = 7)
$possible_letters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxzy";
$sequence = ""
while ($sequence_length--) {
$sequence .= $possible_letters[rand(0, strlen($possible_letters) - 1)];
}
return $sequence;
}
To create random strings. Just fill in $possible_letters with anything you
like
