Here's a library to manage CSS class names on DOM elements.

Here's a basic function for debugging any kind of PHP variable. It allows for "invisible" or "visible" output--that is output in HTML comments or within visible HTML tags. It also supports customizable "containers" which lets you easily edit the look of the visible and invisible blocks. Examples in code below.

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.

Set a word or phrase in an input field, clear it onfocus

This function calculates how many lines will text occupy.
Example (simple):


$string = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Phasellus tincidunt posuere dolor";

$num_lines = how_many_lines(10, $string);

It accepts a third, optional, parameter $options, that allows you to change behaviour. $options should be array. Following configuration options are available:

'white_spaces' - default: array(' ', "\t") - array of chars, that should be treated as whitespace.

'new_lines' - default: array("\r\n", "\n") - array of strings, that should be treated as newlines. For example, for HTML you can set 'new_lines' => array('');

'force_line_breaks' - default: true - force wrapping, when the token is longer than width, or not. If set to false, and token cannot be fitted into $width, function will return false;

'callback' - default: null - callback function for determining character width. Must accept at least one parameter - $char

'callback_params' - default: array() - optional additional callback parameters

'char_widths' - default: null - associative array in a form $char => $width, which contains char width. If $char is not found in the array, it's width is defaulted to 0.
