ID: 16946 Updated by: hpdl@oscommerce.com Reported By: hpdl@oscommerce.com Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: documentation PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: could the rounding feature of number_format be documented? also the empty/no thousands separator does not seem to work with php3 (as mentioned in the comments) - perhaps this should be documented as a php4 only feature too? thanks for your time Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-02 06:48:22] sander@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS.
