I have a table with about 2000 entries with names and other data. Ultimately I'm going to make a database backed web site with this and I want to provide existing users with random id's that they will use for their passwords. I was wondering how to take the existing data and add random id's to it. This web site will be using PHP as the programming language so it would be nice if I could use the same mechanism to add the random id's automatically when I add new users via a web form.
Thanks for any ideas on how to approach this! -Brian Menke
