Note Submitter: pike ---- to whomever it may interest .. function is_formatted_number($str,$digits=2,$decpoint=".",$thousep="") { if ($decpoint == ".") $decpoint = "\\."; if ($thousep == ".") $thousep = "\\."; $pattern = "/^\\d{1,3}($thousep\\d{3})*($decpoint\\d{1,$digits})?$/"; return preg_match($pattern,$str); } obviously, thats way too short. but it will probably work in your setup. *-pike
