This little function does great for passwords, usernames, files, and anything else you need a random string for.

Similar to Perl's CGI::escapeHTML(), though (because we can!) this adds it as a method to all String objects.

It works with Array types. The example is a simple list of numbers, but the array could contain anything; lists of strings, functions, DOM nodes, whatever. Unfortunately, a lot of things that seem like arrays in the DOM aren't really, so you can't shuffle the images on a page with just document.images.shuffle() all by itself.

This function loads an File into an String.

Two very usefull functions to have around.

(note: dollarfy requires commify to work)

This php script provides a unique random key with 32 characters and can be used to avoid the system to pass some primary keys across the url, by example.

Function that splits a given string into sections based on the allowed length for a section. Does not split words up. Splits string on Space character (can be set to another character)

This is a quick and easy method to generate a somewhat random password. This simply generates the MD5 hash for the integer returned by the time() function and then truncates it to the specific length.

I like to have these two methods in my toolbelt, even though it's syntactic sugar, I think it aids clarity.
