If you want to pad strings to a certain length in a REALLY performant way then you should use a binary OR instead. For example: <? $padded = "Short" | " "; ?> This gives the same result as: <? $padded = str_pad("Short", 10); ?> On my machine the first version is about 250% faster and provides the exact same result. --was-- If you want to pad strings to a certain length in a REALLY performant way then you should use a binary OR instead.
