Here is a example of a very small, compact, quite random-random string generator. It will make a string with uppercase & lowercase letters, with numbers. You simply need to set $len in the for() structure, and then the string will be in $r. It has been designed for size, while it's still quite fast. Mind the wrapping, it should be 1 line. <?php for($len=8,$r='';strlen($r)<$len;$r.=chr(!mt_rand(0,2)? mt_rand(48,57):(!mt_rand(0,1)?mt_rand(65,90):mt_rand (97,122)))); ?> Armond Carroll ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mt-rand.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39805 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39805&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39805&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
