If you want to hide a part of your password, you can use this code. It's very simple and might be required in your user management panel.



<?php

$password = "12345abcdef";

$visibleLength = 4; // 4 chars from the beginning



echo substr($password,0,4).str_repeat("*", (strlen($password)-$visibleLength));

?>

In reply to what Roland Knall wrote:



It is much simpler to use printf() or sprintf() for leading zeros.



<?php

   printf("%05d<br>\n",  1); // Will echo 00001

   sprintf("%05d<br>\n",  1); // Will return 00001

?>

str_repeat does not repeat symbol with code 0 on some (maybe all?) systems (tested on PHP Version 4.3.2 , FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE i386 ).



Use <pre>

while(strlen($str) < $desired) $str .= chr(0);

</pre> to have string filled with zero-symbols.

Note that the first argument is parsed only once, so it's impossible to do things like this:



echo str_repeat(++$i, 10);



The example will produce 10 times the value of $i+1, and will not do a cycle from $i to $i+10.

This is the equivalent of Perl's "x" (repetition) operator, for eg.  str_repeat("blah", 8) in PHP does the same thing as "blah" x 8 in Perl.
