i just recently did a function, that uses strrchr to format - let's say a currency - with 2 decimals. can also be done using number_format but you may NOT always want an automatic rounding of your decimals. thats there this function comes in handy: <?php function formatTwoDecimals($value, $trim) { $after_comma = substr(strrchr($value, $trim), 0, 3); $in_front_of_comma = (int) $value; $final = $in_front_of_comma . $after_comma; return $final; } echo formatTwoDecimals("365.6078985", "."); ?> this will produce 365.60 instead of 365.61 which will show up then you use number_format. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 91.40.110.90 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strrchr.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/76846 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76846 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/76846 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
