Question

I want to use integer %00d in javascript using jquery. like that integer 8 will print output like 008.

In C printf("%00d", 8); How about javascript?

How to solve it problem? Thanks any reply.

There's always [PHP JS's verion of `sprintf`](http://phpjs.org/functions/sprintf/) or [`printf`](http://phpjs.org/functions/printf/). — h2ooooooo, Feb 27 '14 at 01:25

If you'd like a library, you should give sprintf a try.

If not, there are several interesting options in this question in SO. Particularly, I liked this solution:

// First, checks if it isn't implemented yet.
if (!String.prototype.format) {
  String.prototype.format = function() {
    var args = arguments;
    return this.replace(/{(\d+)}/g, function(match, number) { 
      return typeof args[number] != 'undefined'
        ? args[number]
        : match
      ;
    });
  };
}
"{0} is dead, but {1} is alive! {0} {2}".format("ASP", "ASP.NET")
