A very simple yet very useful function to have around. Especially generating session codes, filenames or new passwords

This detects screen resolution using javascript and makes it available to php by way of cookies.

From RSA Security's website:
"RC4 is a stream cipher designed by Rivest for RSA Data Security (now RSA Security). It is a variable key-size stream cipher with byte-oriented operations. The algorithm is based on the use of a random permutation. Analysis shows that the period of the cipher is overwhelmingly likely to be greater than 10^100. Eight to sixteen machine operations are required per output byte, and the cipher can be expected to run very quickly in software. Independent analysts have scrutinized the algorithm and it is considered secure."

This implementation encodes the byte stream to be encrypted "in-place".

Example:
Byte[] Key = new Byte[5] { 12, 34, 22, 12, 32 };
Byte[] B = new Byte[10] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 };
// Examine B array before and after this next call.
RC4(ref B, Key);
// Examine B array before and after this next call.
RC4(ref B, Key);

Enforce loadig fresh script code for the external javascript files. Compatible with HTTP 1.0.

This is a simple PHP script that will show whether a certain port/socket of a certain computer is currently open/active.

This multiple-use PHP script will randomly generate content based on a randomly generated number.

This simple function will check if a url is valid (going by parse_url()) and if it's 'online' - by seeing if it returns a 302, 301, or 200 status code.

This small snippet will not allow _POST requests from a 'foreign' domain. It relies on the HTTP_REFERER variable.

This function will reverse the affects of register_globals
