I want to be able to fomrat my numbers to something like this
100,000.00
How would i go about this with this function or do i have the wrong function
sprintf("%01.2f", $money);

give it a try, think about how much time you could have saved instead of posting if you just droped it into a php file and gave it a go

oh ok, well you could make a simple function to count every 3 numbers and insert a ","
but i think to do this you will have to treat the float as a string

*opens mouth and inserts foot*
after posting i dusted off the old php manual and found it, i just thought to hit f5 before i made an even bigger fool of myself
sorry for the slight oversight......
