For applications where precision matters (i.e. anything where accountants and auditors get involved) I would not recommend using floats to keep track of money. You will notice hard to trace rounding errors permeated through your application. Use this function only for values where precision is not a must. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.money-format.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+33007 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+33007&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+33007&report=yes
