Note Submitter: MagicalTux at ooKoo dot org ---- In answer to David and pHp_n00b, about generating a random 6 characters hexadecimal string... Well, the easiest solution would be : <?php $rand = mt_rand(0x000000, 0xffffff); // generate a random number between 0 and 0xffffff $rand = dechex($rand & 0xffffff); // make sure we're not over 0xffffff, which shouldn't happen anyway $rand = str_pad($rand, 6, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT); // add zeroes in front of the generated string echo $rand; ?> Some examples of generated stuff : 8514d2 3188ae 028f3e 444397 1de508 071662 You can easily make a function from this code.
