Password Generator

[Anon]

Hi

I need a function that can generate a random password 10 alphanumeric (letters and numbers) characters long. Can anybody help?

Regards

Peter

here's one. It'a little rough, but it should do what you need.

mt_srand ((float) microtime() * 1000000);
function passgen($length)
{
   $charstring="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz01234567890";
   $len = strlen($charstring);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;for($i=0;$i<$length;$i++)
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;{
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$index = mt_rand(0,$len-1);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$pass .= $charstring[$index];
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;return($pass);
}

<?
srand(time());

    $i=($QUERY_STRING)?ereg_replace("[^0-9]","",$QUERY_STRING):"10";
    while($i--)
    {
            while(!ereg("[a-zA-Z0-9]",$chr=sprintf("%c",rand(48,127)))) ;
            echo $chr;
    }
    echo "\n";

?>

usage: file.php?num where num is a requested length of password
