Here's a password generator that creates more robust passwords: srand((double)microtime()*1000000); $unique_str = md5(rand(0,9999999)); $unique_str = base64_encode(pack("h*", $unique_str)); // that packs the 128-bit hex value into a 16-character binary // string, then expands it out to a 20-ish character base 64 string. // this middle of this string has reasonably high-quality random // characters including all of 0-9,a-z,A-Z, and / // now to prevent someone misreading easily mistaken characters, // and chop it down to a reasonable length: $unique_str = substr(strtr($unique_str, "l/1ID0O", "Ab3Ef6H"),5,8);
