This is a random password generator that produces understandable passwords based on word lists. I've only included a 3 entry world list because you should chose a list based on your password requirements and your users. If you need to generate passwords that are 14 characters in length, you will want a different list than if you're generating 8 character passwords. And depending on your users, you may want to use certain lists. The list I use is about 4000 words that are 5-7 characters long, all well-known words that have had potentially objectionable content removed. For security reasons I don't want to include this list.

A note on security: though this generates relatively strong passwords for the average user, they are particularly susceptible to brute-force attacks. This is even more an issue if somehow your word list gets compromised. I would not recommend using this function for anything where a highly secure password is needed.

A note on choosing your list: You'll also see that I've built the system to avoid generating passwords with zeros and ones in them. This is because zero and upper-case "o" can be confused as can one, lower-case "L" and upper-case "i." When choosing my word list I was also sure to strip out all words that start with the letter "o" or "i" (to prevent the optional ucfirst() from creating 0/O and I/1 confusion) and words that contain the letter "L" (to prevent l/1 confusion). I find that this greatly helps with preventing confusion, but again weakens the security of the passwords some. It's your choice.

MySQL 5.x Stored Routines, PHP Session Values, a little CSS oh my! Complex to set up but easy to impliment. Geared toward security, simplicity (of use) and convenience.

This is a PHP and JavaScript Image gallery that I created. There are 2 uses for this.
1.) You can save it as index.php and place in a folder containing images and it will display the images in that folder.
Example:
place index.php in images/folder
http://yoursite.com/images/folder/
This will display all images in that folder

2.) Pass in the path to the folder to display in the url
Example:
Save as imagegallery.php
http://yoursite.com/imagegallery.php?path=images/folde

This script lets you do any action the number of times specified.

Adds any character at the given index of a string.

NOTE: Count starts from 0

This simple function simply removes the character at the given index from a string.

NOTE: The count starts from 0

This routine checks a client's IP address against a few open lists of blacklisted IP addresses, returns TRUE if the ip is a known proxy.

Ok, another thumbnail PHP function. This function support resize of JPEG and GIF, and resize with aspect ratio (set $THUMBX=0 if you wish it is resized with the Height, $THUMBY=0 if blah blah blah, you get the point)

This snippet allows an aspx page (c#) to accept URL parameters to allow styles or script to be dynamically appended to the rendered page.

I wrote this simple snippet to allow one of our vendors to accept a style override so that their application would morph into something more closely resembling our own portal application. Please see screenshots for clarification.

Give this little function a start date and number of days and it will calculate the end date.
