Number Format in an output.

number format in an echoed td element.

[ski442]

Hi Guys.
I need some help on how to output this correctly.
This is what i have.
echo "<td id='right' height='25'>&pound;$offerprice</td>"; }?>

And this is what I would like,
echo number_format "<td id='right' height='25'>&pound;($offerprice, 2, ".", ",");</td>"; }?>

I have been messing aroung with " and ' and swapping them but no good, so there must be a better way, yea?

Any Help would be great.
Thanks Very Much

HI ski442,

echo number_format "<td id='right' height='25'>&pound;($offerprice, 2, ".", ",");</td>";}?>

try:-

echo "<td id='right' height='25'>&pound;".number_format($offerprice, 2, ".", ",")."</td>";

}//guessing as this closes an if
?>

Give it a try, I might be wrong but that looks about right to me, apologies if its wrong... All I have done is concatenate the function into the echo.

Cheers,

Hi ski442,

You can`t pass HTML into the number_format function. Needs to be simply:

echo "<td id='right' height='25'>&pound;".number_format($offerprice, 2, ".", ",")."</td>";
