just a quickie

$totalChar1 = 3; 
$salt1 = "0123456789";
srand((double)microtime()*1000000); 
$ran_num3=""; // set the inital variable 
for ($i1=0;$i1<$totalChar1;$i1++) 
$ran_num3 = $ran_num3 . substr ($salt1, rand() % strlen($salt1), 1);

Simple question... how do I make it so $ran_num3 =< 400?

$ran_num3 = (0, 400);

straight from the manual

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php

so, like this:?

$totalChar1 = 3; // number of chars in the password 
$salt1 = "0123456789";  // salt to select chars from 
srand((double)microtime()*1000000); // start the random generator 
$ran_num3=""; // set the inital variable 
for ($i1=0;$i1<$totalChar1;$i1++)  // loop and create password 
$ran_num3 = $ran_num3 . substr ($salt1, rand() % strlen($salt1), 1);
$ran_num3 = (0, 400);

Coz that doesn't work lol

what i have you will create a random number between 0 and 400, i didn't notice that you wanted to do it after you already generated one

oh soz lol :$ There was a misunderstanding
