Format Number API

markus_petrux - November 2, 2008 - 13:39

The Format Number API module provides a method to configure number formats (site default and user defined) with configurable decimal point and thousand separators.

Several functions are exposed by the module that can be used by other contributed or custom modules to display numbers accordingly, from PHP and JavaScript as well. For further information, please see the README.txt.

This module does not add any other functionality by itself, rather it might be required by other contributed or custom modules. Modules using this API: Cache browser, Formatted Number CCK, Money CCK field, Referential Integrity for CCK.
