FW: [PHP] String 2 Number

yah he's right... you can treat the string with the digits as number <?php $str = "3451"; $num = $str + 1; ?> will result to 3452 but if u still want... try this <?php $str = "3451"; $num = sprintf("%d",$str); ?> hope that helps. jessie :) -----Original Message----- From: Dave Watkinson [mailto:d.watkinson@mightymatch.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2001 4:25 AM To: Saied Gerami; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] String 2 Number I don't think you need to - if it could be construed as a number PHP can treat it as such -----Original Message----- From: Saied Gerami [mailto:gerami@d21.de] Sent: 10 October 2001 12:31 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] String 2 Number Hi, Does anybody know how can I change a string containing only digits (like "3451") to number?
