Found this one on Stack Overflow needing a quick and easy way to create somewhat random strings.
function randomString(len, charSet) {
charSet = charSet || 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789';
var randomString = '';
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
var randomPoz = Math.floor(Math.random() * charSet.length);
randomString += charSet.substring(randomPoz,randomPoz+1);
}
return randomString;
}
If you visit the entire thread where this code was posted there’s a pretty good discussion of how to create random strings using math and date functions.
