Recommended Posts

sorry I think u didnt get me on this.

 

 

say I have a string of 100 character

 

first 10 characters are filled as one variable.

 

 

var1="abcdefghij"

 

var2="asdf5"

 

 

now I want to fill the spaces of  85 spaces as I have to concate this string as on line of record. so var1 stands first then the var2 comes as last values.

 

so I need filler code if u have or any idea how to do it?

 

Thanks for u support

 

 

If you are writing these variables to a file, I would use the sprintf() function to format the string:

<?php
$var1="abcdefghij";
$var2="asdf5";
$record = sprintf("%-95s%5s",$var1,$var2);
echo strlen($record).'<br>'; //debug line
echo '<pre>' . $record . '</pre>'; //debug line
?>
