note 115921 added to function.str-shuffle

str_shuffle isn't recommendable for passwords. Each character exists only one time). A function like the following one is better for this. <?php function generatePassword($length = 8) { $possibleChars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; $password = ''; for($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) { $rand = rand(0, strlen($possibleChars) - 1); $password .= substr($possibleChars, $rand, 1); } return $password; } ?> ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 87.154.251.117 (proxied: 111.77.141.61) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.str-shuffle.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/115921 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115921 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/115921 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
