What means the regular expression '%d'? I know 'd' means any single digit, but I canno find info on '%'....Son

Where exactly did you see that? Are you sure it's not something like PHP's sprintf() function? I can't find a reference on that either.

I find it in several places on new website I am working on. It is in queries as:SELECT first_name, last_name FROM users WHERE user_id=%dSon

that's exactly what boen_robot said, it is from sprintf and it is used on sql queries a lothere is an example from php.net

$query = sprintf("SELECT firstname, lastname, address, age FROM friends WHERE firstname='%s' AND lastname='%s'", $firstname, $lastname);

%d is for a decimal number that will come as a second argument on sprintfread more @ php.net
