converting 1 to 1st, 2 to 2nd, 3 to 3rd.

[gezeala]

I need help..

Is there a function in PHP or Postgresql that converts cardinal numbers (1,2,3, etc) to ordinal numbers in the form 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on...?

thanks a lot in advance...

As far as i know there's no such function within PHP. However, you could try something like this:

<?php

if($nr == 1) {
$nr = $nr."st";
} elseif($nr == 2) {
$nr = $nr."nd";
} elseif($nr == 3) {
$nr = $nr."rd";
} elseif($nr >= 4) {
$nr = $nr."th";
}

?>
