ereg: ? 1234.56 ==> ? 1.234,56

[Quarco]

Hi javascript guru's :

I have a form with calculations, but i want the numbers presented in a
diffrent way:

Is it possible to replace values like ? 120 to ? 12,00
and ? 345.9 to ? 345,90

The most ideal situation would be ? 1.234,56 with numbers > 1000, but
perhaps that's too difficult...

(PS: I need only the replace function, I know how to walk-through the span's
where the numbers are in...)

Thanx in advance,
Marco

For thousand separators, there's a reasonable-looking solution at
https://lists.latech.edu/pipermail/j...ne/007875.html.

For decimal point/comma:
numStr.replace(/(\d)(\d{2})$/,"$1,$2");
// make final two digits into a decimal
and
numStr.replace(/\./, ","); // replace dot with comma
and possibly
numStr.replace(/\.(\d)$/, ",$10");
// enforce 2 decimal places where now only one

Look up the RegExp object in your favourite JS reference for details.

Newsgroup FAQ, Sec 4.6, but with '.' changed to ','; then adapt from
<URL:http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-maths.htm#Out> to insert thousands
separators.

You should test those on a reasonably wide range of numbers, including 0
and 0.07 and 17; and read the newsgroup FAQ.
