fair point; I've been trying to change my mindset on this of late, but there
is no replacement for simply writing you're own code. Well said.
How many numbers are you likely to need?

Keep in mind (if you're not already) that mt_rand() doesn't
technically need to be seeded.

Maybe I'm wrong on this but mt_rand doesn't seem to be random enough.
I'm on a PHP 4.04 server and here's my code..
function make_seed() {
list($usec, $sec) = explode(' ', microtime());
return (float) $sec + ((float) $usec * 10);
}
mt_srand(make_seed());
$randval = mt_rand();
I
Is there a way to seed the mt_rand function with numbers and letters to
generate a good password of say 6-10 characters?
Thanks
Phillip
