Translates a number to a short alhanumeric version. e.g.: 9007199254740989 --> PpQXn7COf In most cases this is better than totally random ID generators because this can easily avoid duplicate ID's. Fo...
parse_str() is fine for simple stuff but it's not the same as PHP's built way of creating the $_GET magic variable. Why?!?......
The best way to determine the character count of a UTF8 string. function strlen_utf8( $str ) { return mb_strlen( $str, 'UTF-8' ); } //or... function strlen_utf8( $str ) { $c = 0;...
