note 29862 added to function.number-format

i don't remember if i wrote this or got it off this website, but here's a useful function for adding leading zeros to a number. note that the returns result is, of course, a string. function leading_zero($length,$number){ $length=$length-strlen($number); for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++){ $number = "0" . $number; } return($number); } "leading_zero(3,15)" returns "015" -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+29862 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+29862 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+29862
