There sure are, did you check the manual?
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php

You can also do it with the % operator instead of using a function if you
want.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.php

jason









much easier to use:

number_format($number,2);

I believe the functions are used to write to printers local to the
webserver, not the client.

There is a problem when I have a money field in MSSQL 7, and if the value 
for that field is greater than 99,999,999 it will be truncated to 8 digit 
when i retrieve that field.

ex. Value = 155,000,000 it will truncated to 15,500,000

What I have to do with that problem..

That problem not appear on PHP4 - Win9X - MSSQL7





Hi,

can someone tell me where to start looking for a method to get a list of
available drives in a system ?

Something like

array get_available_drives();

...

ty,
    Markus






You can do something like this untested code:

$drives = "";
for ($i=0;$i<25;$i++)
{
   $drives .= chdir(Chr($i + 65) . ":\") ? Chr($i + 65) : "";
}
echo "the drives are: $drives";

Hmm .. I was more thinking about some interal function ...
what if I want to know what type of drive it is (fixed, cdrom, ram) ?

For now I've written my own get_logical_drives() and get_drive_type()
functions
but I was wondering if there's allready a way to get the desired information
from
the system (e.g. COM , but I didn't succeeded).

... I don't think PHP has any functions named like that;
I assume you'll have to stick to SQL.






As I recall, there is a reference to this on the http://www.php.net
site.

found it don't work .

program work correct. Why ? Must it suffix is .php?






Yes. It must be. PHP in order to get parsed by the server.
It depends on the Web Server, you can configure it to parse also HTML files.

... it depends on your mime-type settings.  You can
set anything you like to be treated as a php file; I have
seen sites where .html is processed as .php so
users' bookmarks won't be broken.

But the most common extensions are .php, .php3, .php4,
and/or phtml.

Hi all.

I have found a similar thread in the list archive, but can't find the solution.

Im using Apache + PHP4 + Windows98.
I have configured both Apache and PHP as described in manuals.
After startig 127.0.0.1/scripts/myfirstphp.php in my browser I get the download prompt 
from Windows instead of php-results.
What should I do?

Regards
rr






I have been extremely successful using ASP and MS-SQL for a long time, but
am making a transition to PHP.  I've tried connecting to the SQL Server
database, but have been unsuccessful.  The way a data source is called in
ASP is:

database.open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;User Id=user;Password=password;Initial
Catalog=mydatabase;Data Source=DATABASESERVER\SQLSERVER"

How can I translate this into PHP?
