Description:
------------
Is this a bug? PHP 4.3.8

printf("%07d",  $value)  produces "00value7"
e.g., if $value=123 , output is "00001237"

I expected "00value"


printf("%06d",  $value)  produces "0value6"
I expected "0value"

Am i missing something here?

I figured out the problem. I was echoing the output of printf.

using 

echo printf("%07d",$value) gives 00value7

using 

printf("%07d",$value)gives 00value


Sorry.
