I often find myself quickly needing the 1-way encrypted value (hash) of a string. Most often, it’s to securely store an individual password into a database or script. Rather than temporarily hard-coding the plain text to see what PHP will generate, I wrote a little reusable script to generate hash values. Anyone who might find it useful can find it here. If you’re paranoid about security, you can find a secure version here, although you may get a warning about my self-signed certificate.

About Me
- Welcome to my website. I'm a full-time web developer in Northern California. I do everything from CSS to PHP to server administration, and I love what I do. I'm currently developing several Buddypress/Wordpress plugins, as I think it is a great CMS platform. Feel free to drop me a line: My Email address is my first name appended to this domain name ;-)
- Vim TipsTired of looking at one of the files you're editing but don't want to save it just yet? Type ":hide" and the current buffer will be hidden from view. To find a list of all buffers (hidden and visible), type ":buffers". To select the one you'd like to edit, type ":buffer [number]".
