I hate to ask what seems to be a simple question but, does PHP have a thousands separator for large numbers in constants or variables? In Perl, you can use the underscore, e.g. $num = '123_456_789', but that doesn't work in PHP. I can't find an answer anywhere, so I hope the answer isn't "no". :\ Thank you, JenniNormally you format numbers when creating output. This tells you how to it: http://php.net/number_format If you want to store them in a file or a database with the formatting, you would have to store them as strings. -- Stephen
