See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Numeric_types.html | Another extension is supported by MySQL for optionally | specifying the display width of an integer value in | parentheses following the base keyword for the type (for | example, INT(4)). This optional display width specification | is used to left-pad the display of values having a width | less than the width specified for the column. However, the | display width does not constrain the range of values that | can be stored in the column, or the number of digits that | will be displayed for values having a width exceeding that | specified for the column. I haven't found much use for display widths myself, but then different people use MySQL differently. -- Keith C.
