Number Conversion to German Format!!

Hello Folks,
I want to convert the number to german format in Javascript.Are there any functions related to it?Please help me out.
Regards,

Hi Ravi,
if you mean with german Number-Format ',' instead of '.' you can use replace():

Note that the variable float is a String and only useful for displaying the value. You can't calculate correctly with it anymore.
parseFloat( float ) e.g. would return 18 because the comma and everthing behind are cut.

I want to convert it into German Format

What do you mean with that? Date-Format?

How do you define german format, Ravi

Afaik javascript does not have fancy i18n capabilities like Java (or am I missing something, like the other day when I realized that JavaScript has regexp???)
Christian and me are german, so you can see us as german number experts.

American number: 1,423.30
German number: 1.423,30
You could work with the replace functionaliy Christian mentioned.

Hello Christian Baron,
I had made small changes in ur code which goes here.
function format( number )
{
var n = ""+number;
var s;//add by Ravi
// make it a Stringvar s = 0;
if( n.indexOf("-") > -1 ) s=1; // negative ?
else //add by Ravi
s=0;//add by Ravi
for( i = n.length-3; i > s; i-=3 )
//Start at index 3 from the end, decrement 3 each loop
{
n = n.substring( 0, i ) + "." + n.substring( i );
// insert dots
}
return n;
}
document.write( format(1423234) );
document.write( "<br>" + format(-1423234) );
which works perfectly.Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Ravi
