To conform to Google News standards, how can I get the article numbers from 1-99 display as a 3 digit number like this - 001 to 099? When the articles reach 100, I will not need the 00 do show. Google news requires that the URL for each article must contain a unique number consisting of at least three digits.

Currently, the articles began as "1"
