Probably the easiest way is sprintf(); for example,
sprintf('%04.0d', 34) returns 0034

If you need a multiple file upload interface, you might want to take a look at some extjs ALAX toolkit-based stuff, eg http://aariadne.com/uploadform/ http://extplorer.sourceforge.net/ Haven't used either of them, though. I do use extjs alot: http://extjs.com/ Normally I shy away from 'Web 2.0' kinda stuff, but I've had to develop some complex dynamic interfaces to a PHP/MySQL backend and had to make the leap. It's well-documented, the developers are active and helpful participants in the forums, and it seems to work pretty well cross-platform (haven't tried it on my Linux/Solaris boxes yet, but WinXP/Firefox, WinXP/IE, OSX/Firefox, OSX/Safari all seem to work pretty well. Had some quirks with OSX/Opera, but haven't had a chance to delve into that. I also use the HTML_AJAX package - http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_AJAX - as I still have some PHP4 left and can't use the native JSON functions. If extjs doesn't float your boat, you can always look into Scriptaculous, Dojo, YUI, many others. steve ... . Steve Edberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] . .

Well, that's a pretty vague question. The more specific you are, the better answers you'll get.
