Okay, I've been asked to take a bunch of HTML pages and turn them into Excel
spreadsheets by running them through a PHP script and outputting a
semicolon-delimited text file. The pages are in this format:

tore them on the server, nobody can see the actual passwords. Now when
someone tries to login with one of those passwords, you crypt the password
he enters, compare it with the version on the server, and if they match,
it's the right password.

Try:

That'll change:
include.html?page=main.html?date=12
into:
include.html?page=main.html&date=12
So the variables get passed properly.

I don't think the foreach is necessary - Why can't you just say:
$lastdir = $dirs[$numberofelements-1];
$file = $dirs[$numberofelements];

You could probably make an addbadwords.php that loads the
filterbadwords.php, does some stupid PHP tricks(tm) to find the line that
defines the array, then writes the filterbadwords.php back out with the new
words
I'd make it an array:
$filter = array(moron, idiot, pratt);
foreach($filter as $badword) {
if (strstr($name, $badword)) {
do this if it contains one of the bad words
}
else {
do this if it doesn't
