Password Generator

[John Henrikson]

Hey,

I basically want some functionality that creates a random password of 8 characters usings a-z,A-Z, and 0-9. I was thinking of just having a UI page with a button and a text box with the output. I only need something as simple as that, unfortunately I am awful at HTML and Jelly so any help would be appreciated.

Note: we are on Geneva and also don't have the plugin for Ouath security or any of those, so we cannot use that out-of-box functionality.

Thanks in advance...

Thanks Paul,

I just registered for Snow Share to get it, but I unfortunately don't know how long it will take, is there any way of getting the information faster? sorry about this

Try this: Create a button to produce a random number.

Or this: Generate random string/characters in JavaScript - Stack Overflow  

Or this UI action:

Name: Random

Client: true

onClick: generateNumber()

Script:

function generateNumber() {
       var text = "";
       var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
       for( var i=0; i < 15; i++ ) //will generate 15 characters pasword
               text += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));
       alert( text);
}
