 i was trying to do an str_pad with nbsp; (space) but somehow it's just
 putting in one space and nbs
 
 sample code:
 
 ? echo str_pad($varname,20,nbsp; ?
 
 anybody else experienced this?

nbsp; is 6 characters.  It may only appear as one character when
viewed as html, but to str_pad() it's 6 characters.

of course, you can specify the optional argument STR_PAD_LEFT like:

$dbranch = str_pad($line-dbranch_no, 6, '', STR_PAD_LEFT);

Enjoy,

Subject: [PHP] str_pad


This should be quite an easy task for some...

say for example $line-dbranch has a value of 3
I know that 3 spaces will be added on to the end of $dbranch


$dbranch = str_pad($line-dbranch_no, 6);

so the value of $dbranch should look like 3 

Is there anyway to right justify the 3 using str_pad .. example still put
the 3 spaces in but at the beginning???
so it looks like  3

Just learning PHP and figuring out all the syntax and stuff.  Anyway I
had a question about the code example in this post...

What does the - do in:

$dbranch = str_pad($line-dbranch_no, 6, '', STR_PAD_LEFT);

Is dbranch_no a class I don't know about? 

Thanks, 

Jeff

$line is an instance of some class (not shown in the above). dbranch is
a member variable of the class, and subsequently an instance variable of
the object $line. The - is how you access methods and variables in
objects.

No, $line is an object (class instance) and dbranch_no is a property of 
the object.

It gives

dbranch_no field in
$line array

$line-dbranch_no replaces the value of 'dbranch_no' field stored in
'$line' array.

Enjoy
