Oh this was good.
I added a while loop to insert extra strings "0" in front of the number to add
if the string is less than 5 chars short.
sprintf is your friend here, no need to use a loop.
sprintf('%05d', '1234');
No need to use a sledgehammer when a screwdriver will suffice:
<?php
echo str_pad( '1234', 5, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT )
?>
I knew there was another way ;)
Thanks for the reminder..
