| Even with left justification:
|
| printf("<option value='%d'>%-4s %s</option>n",
| $row->id,
| $row->NumberOfQuotes,
| arrangeName($row->lastName, $row->firstName, $row->middleName,

| Does Anyone have any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
The web browser automatically removes multiple spaces.
You will need to use for the spaces to be displayed.
