LSCurrencyFormat
LSCurrencyFormat(number [, type])Returns a JRE-dependent, locale-specific currency format where
number is the currency amount, and
type is the locale-specific convention.
Valid entries for type are
None (the amount), Local (the
amount with locale-specific currency formatting; the default), and
International (the amount with its corresponding
three-letter international currency prefix). Note that for JDK 1.3,
Euro Zone countries use the currency symbol of their locale. For JDK
1.4, Euro Zone countries use the euro. For this reason, it is
suggested you use the LSEuroCurrencyFormat( )
function if you need to deal with the euro. The following example
displays currency formats for each locale:
<cfloop index="locale" list="#Server.Coldfusion.SupportedLocales#">
<cfset SetLocale(locale)>
<cfoutput>
<p><b>#locale#</b><br>
None: #LSCurrencyFormat(1000000.99, "None")#<br>
Local: #LSCurrencyFormat(1000000.99, "Local")#<br>
International: #LSCurrencyFormat(1000000.99, "International")#<br>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
