note 56054 added to function.str-repeat

You can use this function for a simple leading zero function. I use it the following way: function lzero ( $nr, $length = 2 ) { if ( strlen ( trim ( $nr ) ) >= $length return $nr; return str_repeat ( "0", $length strlen ( trim ( $nr ) ) ).$nr; } The trim is just for extra safety, so that I do not count whitespaces ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-repeat.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+56054 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56054&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+56054&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
