A wee problem showing UK pound currency

Hi I'm still a bit green about the cvs thing, I had a look and downloaded xcode but will need time to learn how to use it Im afraid - sorry but here is the complete file in text format for starters

What I needed was a registration for a UK conference and so I set about adding in an option for UK Pounds.

I made two small changes. The first to add the currency code for UK Pounds into the array

function signup_pay_get_currency() {
return array(
'GBP' => t('UK Pounds'),
'EUR' => t('Euro'),
'USD' => t('US Dollar'),
'CAD' => t('Canadian Dollar'),
);
}

And then added it as a case to function _signup_pay_format_amount
* Format currency.
*/
function _signup_pay_format_amount($amount, $currency) {
$amount = number_format($amount, 2);
switch($currency) {
case 'GBP':
return "£ $amount"; (
case 'EUR':
return "€ $amount";
case 'USD':
return "$ $amount";
case 'CAD':
return "C$ $amount";
default:
return check_plain($currency). " $amount";
}
}

All that was left to do was make GBP the default currency

define('SIGNUP_PAY_DEFAULT_CURRENCY', 'GBP');

It all seems to work but the UK £ sign doesn't render correctly. It shows the HTML code instead of the £ sign.

Hope that gives u what you need.

I'm not really a developer so apologise for not submitting in the correct format - I will take time to learn how to create a proper patch as soon as I can so I can contribute properly :)

Thanks for your patience meantime

This is the version I have been using and it seems to work fine but you will need to apply the additional suggestion by markfoodyburton - I never did get the pound sign to show up correctly. Hope that works for you
