Can someone tell me an easy/quick/clean way of checking if a variable is divisible by 1000? (or any number for that matter.)

Thanks

Jamie

<?
if ($number%1000<1) {
echo "$number is divisible";
}
?>

Thanks, mate, but what does the '%' mean ??

That's the mighty Modulus!
It provides the remainder from a division.
