Password Generator - Password Generator

Hey,
I know you can probably find a password generator everywhere, but I just wanted to do my own (even though I had to copy one piece of code..).
I would not use anyone elses password generator for the simple reason - what happens with those passwords after they are generated? o_O
The one I made is supposed to be very simple and easy. Tell me what you think :D

Number of passwords to generate: 1 .. 1000
Length of password: 8 .. 128 (preset to 32)...

Read more about this resource...

I don't really think that there is a security concern here. If you use an online password generator, chances are high it's implemented in pure client-side JS. You have all the source code to verify that your password is sent nowhere.
And even if it was sent somewhere, how could someone benefit from that? The hypothetical attacker would only know your IP address, the password(s) and the time they were generated. As long as he cannot associate that with a website and username, he can't do anything with it.

However, I love doing stuff like this with JS one- or two-liners.
Code:
Math.random().toString(36).substr(2); // [a-z0-9], variable length (mostly & max 16 chars though)

Passwords shouldn't be generated that way though: relevant xkcd comic.
