I never said it's not a bug. It is, the fact is that it's not PHP
related but MySQL related, so bugs mysql.com

The posted details make it sound like a bug to me so unless you truly
know the answer nicos I don't think this should be closed. jrust,
maybe it'd be helpful if you provide a small db schema that'll go along
with a query so others can easily test it.

I really don't think that can be PHP related... Post a MySQL bug
instead? Did you tried that with MySQL 4 (C API)?
Anyway if someone feels that I'm wrong, open it again.
Thank you for the report.

The following mysql query should return the data padded with spaces on
the right:
<?php
$query = '
SELECT
RPAD(t1.f_field1,15,\' \'),
RPAD(t2.f_field2, 15, \' \')
FROM
test.table1 as t1
LEFT JOIN test.table2 AS t2 ON t1.record=t2.joinID
ORDER BY t1.record DESC';
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'password');
$result = mysql_query($query);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_NUM)) {
var_dump($row);
}
?>
However, the all spaces to the right of the string are chopped off, as
if PHP (or maybe the MySQL api?) is doing an rtrim on the data.
Some details:
* The exact same query run from the MySQL console returns the correctly
padded data.
* If the ORDER BY is commented out the data comes back padded
correctly.
* If the query does not contain a JOIN the data comes back padded
correctly (even if there is an ORDER BY)
* It doesn't matter what the data is for table1 and table2 so long as
the two tables can be joined and have some data in the fields
* I am using MySQL version 3.23.52
