Note Submitter: qeremy [atta] gmail [dotta] com ---- <?php // Warning error, outputs: NULL, so nothing to display echo sprintf("%d crazy %s in the garden.\n", 1); ?> I think this could be a solution for this error: "Warning: sprintf(): Too few arguments in /var/www/..." <?php function sprinter($text) { preg_match_all('~(%[a-z])~', $text, $m); if (isset($m[1]) && !empty($m[1])) { $args = array_slice(func_get_args(), 1); $keys = $vals = array(); foreach ($args as $arg) { $keys[] = sprintf('/%s/', array_shift($m[1])); $vals[] = $arg; } return preg_replace($keys, $vals, $text, 1, $count); } } // No error, outputs: 1 crazy %s in the garden. echo sprinter("%d crazy %s in the garden.\n", 1); // Normally no error, outputs: 1 crazy frog in the garden. echo sprinter("%d crazy %s in the garden.\n", 1, "frog"); ?>
