dollarformat

[HandersonVA]

document.test.form.itemprice.value = itemprice;
alert(itemprice);

If the value is 800.16, it keeps showing as 800.1600.
what will be the function to make this value as a money type?

As we don't all live in a dollar country,
I wouldn't pretend to know what you mean by "dollarformat".

v = 23.5;
document.write(euroformat(v)+'<br>');

v = -123;
document.write(euroformat(v)+'<br>');

function euroformat(x){
return "&euro;&nbsp;" + x.toFixed(2);
};

For browsers that implement &euro; and toFixed. And the FAQ says that
some toFixed is buggy.

€ gives a Euro sign on at least some systems that do not have
&euro; .

I wonder whether UniCode has a place reserved for the specifically-US
dollar? All sorts of people use \u0024; .

And what about the specifically-Canadian one?

Not all, my sort does not, we use the &euro;
even though it is not an Uni[que]code
