Password Encryption Script

I have completely recoded the .htpasswd Encryption Tool, available at http://www.4webhelp.net/us/password.php, as the old one was coded in Perl, which meant we couldn't integrate it with the site's design.

Please let me know if you find any bugs, or have any comments/suggestions.

Any chance of seeing the source code to find out how you do that?

Actually the "core" encryption code was given to me by Adam.

Code:

function get_encrypt_pw ($password) {
   mt_srand( (double)microtime() * 1000000);
   $salt = mt_rand (100000000, 999999999);
   return crypt($password,$salt);
}

The rest is just layout, error catching, etc...
