ok, well i do have a "secret number maker" BUT sometimes it well come out whith only 1 letter... like "J"... Is there a way to make it so it has to have 15 letters no matter what? (and saves it into MSSQL DB)
function randomkeys($length)
{
  $pattern = "1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIGKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
  for($i=0;$i<$length;$i++)
  {
   if(isset($key))
	 $key = $pattern{rand(0,35)};
   else
	 $key = $pattern{rand(0,35)};
  }
  return $key;
}

$sn = randomkeys(15);

INSERT INTO Login(UID, ID, PWD, Birth, Type, ExpTime, Email, MSN, AIM, IP, SN)
VALUES ('$z', '$name',$password, '19000101', '0', '4000', '$email', '$msn', '$aim', '$userip', '$sn')

Thank you.

The problem lies in the fact that you are re-writing over your $key string, instead of appending to it, like you should.
And there seems to be no reason to check whether or not the $key variable is set; kind of makes no sense since you are executing the exact same code either way.

function randomkeys($length){
  $pattern = '1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIGKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
  $key = '';
  for($i =0; $i < $length; $i++)
	$key .= $pattern{rand(0,35)};
  return $key;
}

Try this function I wrote out:

//-------------------
// Generate an #num# digit ID
//-------------------
function randomID($num) {
	$str = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890';
	$randomID = substr(str_shuffle($str), 0, $num);
	return $randomID;
}

Then call it:

randomID(10); // Replace 10 with any number

Then just use that when inserting it into your database values.

Hope that helps.

I know it's longer than what you want but I was noticing it is a "secret number" for a user account....

Why not just use the md5 result registration time stamp? it's 32 characters long instead of 15 but it's a lot more easily generated and will be unique per user account.

or if you just want it 15 characters...
$secret_number = substr(md5($join_date), 0, 15);


here's specifically how i did it
//Get the unix time
$date = time();

$code1 = md5($date); // regular 32 character code

$code2 = substr(md5($date), 0, 15); // same md5 chopped to 15 characters
