of course, you can specify the optional argument STR_PAD_LEFT like:
$dbranch = str_pad($line->dbranch_no, 6, '', STR_PAD_LEFT);

Subject: [PHP] str_pad
This should be quite an easy task for some...
say for example $line->dbranch has a value of 3
I know that 3 spaces will be added on to the end of $dbranch
$dbranch = str_pad($line->dbranch_no, 6);
so the value of $dbranch should look like "3 "
Is there anyway to right justify the 3 using str_pad .. example still put
the 3 spaces in but at the beginning???
so it looks like " 3"
