Help with Plus and Minus

[Riparian]

Hi

 

Can someone point me in the right direction.

 

I can force php to put a Plus(+) sign in front of positive numbers with printf('%0+4.2f',$x)

 

But

 

I cant get this to work inside <option>printf('%0+4.2f',$x)</option> tags

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

why dont you use the html code for +

Thanks for the help but finally got it working with the following

 

<OPTION VALUE="<?=$x?>"><?php printf('%0+2.2f', $x)?></OPTION>

 

For others this displays a plus in front of positive numbers only  (the 2.2 is the decimal points required)

 

$x is the display value I was chasing

 

Hope it helps someone

 

Cheers

^^^ That has nothing to do with it. ^^^

 

Assuming this is within an echo statement, you need to concatenate the function's output into the string.

echo "<option>" . printf('%0+4.2f',$x) . "</option> ';
