These will
 encrypt a string more than scramble, but maybe one of these serves
the
 purpose.
No, that isn't what I'm looking for.  It's not for encryption.  I just
need
a function that scrambles a string.

Maybe try looking into the crypt() or md5() functions on php.net. These will
encrypt a string more than scramble, but maybe one of these serves the
purpose.

 I'm looking for two functions.  One to scramble a string, and one to check
 if one string is a scrambled version of another.  Does anybody have these?

Explain what you mean by scramble and what you are trying to accomplish?
There isn't a built-in function for this that I've seen, so, you'll have to
write your own function using various PHP commands. This function might be
useful to that end: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.levenshtein.php
