note 32568 added to function.number-format

When working with realtime credit card billing systems, e.g. Wire Card C3 you need to convert prices to cent values. Example: "9.99" $ must be "999" or "123.10" must be "12310" So here ist the method for doing a simple conversion: ########################################## function _convertToWireCardPrice($price) { //checking the syntax and format $price = strval($price); if(eregi('^[0-9]{1,}[\.]{1}[0-9]{2}$', $price)) { /* format is valid */ $price = eregi_replace("\.", "", $price); // removing the .dot return $price; } else { echo "Incorrect number format for transactions via the Wire Card C3 (\"$price\").<br />"; exit; } } ########################################## For more information about what might go wrong when building realtime billing solutions, drop me a mail. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+32568 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+32568&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+32568&report=yes
