      <description><![CDATA[<p>
A <a href="http://anyexample.com/programming/php/php__password_generation.xml">new tutorial</a> has been posted over on AnyExample.com dealing with password generation in PHP. This type of script can be useful for creating a default password for your application to give initially to the user.
</p>
<blockquote>
Modern web-applications often provide (during registration, or password-reset) random-generated passwords for its users. However these passwords (usually a random combination of letters or numbers) are quite hard to remember: in fact, it's even impossible to read them. This article provides a function for generating English-like readable passwords.
</blockquote>
<p>
The key difference in <a href="http://anyexample.com/programming/php/php__password_generation.xml">this script</a> is that last sentence - making the passwords somewhat human-readable. They give an example of what the traditional (md5-ish) approach to making passwords is before giving the code to create something a bit easier to remember like "lyttakor" or "fapoution". Example usage code is also provided.
