note 105553 added to function.sprintf

Regarding "space" padding specified not properly displayed in html. A Cascaded Style Sheet property for text, "white-space:pre" can be used to display the white space padding. Known supported version, HTML 4.0. <?php //The 15 monkeys are attacking the [ zoo]! $format = 'The %d monkeys are attacking the [%10s]!'; echo "<p style=\"white-space:pre\">" . sprintf($format, 15, 'zoo') . "</p>"; ?> Replacing the "space" with HTML escape character "&nbsp;" is still the safest. Just in case of unsupported CSS. ---- Server IP: 124.217.228.174 Probable Submitter: 118.100.243.86 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105553 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105553 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105553 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
