name__like statement for numbers

anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks for the reply. Here’s what I’m doing. I’m printing out all my tags alphabetically. However, instead of printing out A-Z on one page (i have thousands of tags), I’m doing it by letter. I have the letter pages working, but can’t get the number page to work. So, I have a link that says something like ‘view tags that begin with a #’ and I want to print out all tags that begin with a number (or even code it to say print tags that don’t begin with a letter). But I can’t figure out how to do it. Any combination I do only prints out tags that begin with 1 and not any other number. Any thoughts?

Will take a look. Here’s the code I currently use on my ‘Tags that begin with the letter A’ page. I have a page and change the A for each letter. The letters work, the page with numbers doesn’t. I’ll play around and report back.

<?php
$tags = get_tags( array('name__like' => "a", 'order' => 'ASC') );
$tags_count = count($tags);
$count = intval( $tags->count );
$percolumn = ceil($tags_count / 3);

for ($i = 0;$i < $tags_count;$i++):
    if ($i < $percolumn):
    $tag_left .= '
	<li><a href="'. get_tag_link($tags[$i]->term_id) . '"rel="tag">' . $tags[$i]->name .' (' . $tags[$i]->count . ')</a></li>
' . "\n";
    elseif ($i >= $percolumn && $i < $percolumn*2):
    $tag_mid .= '
	<li><a href="'. get_tag_link($tags[$i]->term_id) . '"rel="tag">' . $tags[$i]->name .'  (' . $tags[$i]->count . ')</a></li>
' . "\n";
    elseif ($i >= $percolumn*2):
    $tag_right .= '
	<li><a href="'. get_tag_link($tags[$i]->term_id) . '"rel="tag">' . $tags[$i]->name .' (' . $tags[$i]->count . ')</a></li>
' . "\n";
    endif;
endfor;
?>

<div class="list">
<ul>
<?php echo $tag_left; ?>
</ul>
</div>

<div class="list">
<ul>
<?php echo $tag_mid; ?>
</ul>
</div>

<div class="list">
<ul>
<?php echo $tag_right; ?>
</ul>
</div>

This prints the list out in three columns

Yeah, can’t figure out how to combine your code to work with what I have. On my pages, I have my navigation bar.. then under that, i have search by # | A | …. Z. Those then link to individual pages. I’m not sure how to modify the code you presented so that I can have the navigation in my header and then the output on each individual page.
