currency symbols on windows

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

How can I get currency symbols to appear on a windows platform using php?

Right now, the following code results in “USD 1250.00”

[FONT=Courier New]$number = 1250

setlocale(LC_MONETARY, ‘en_US’); echo money_format(‘%i’,$number);[/FONT]

I’d like the result to read “$1250.00” (yes, I’m a newb). Any help would be great.

@philo351authorJan 05.2007 — nevemind. I got it. For anyone wondering the same thing, I found the solution by using the number_format solution. The new code looks like this


[FONT=Courier New] echo '$', number_format($number, 2, '.', ',')[/FONT]

Success!
