Little tricks: string padding in Javascript
I just found this little trick to zero pad numbers in Javascript. It is also applicable to padding with any character, not just zeros. var n = 123 String("00000" + n).slice(-5); // returns 00123 ("00000" + n).slice(-5); // returns 00123 (" " + n).slice(-5); // returns " 123" (with two spaces) Found here.
