I can't comment on the function itself, but the language options is correct. Europe uses a comma in place of the decimal point in many cases.

For English users, '.' will be the decimal point character. If Window's Regional and Language Options is to be believed, Spanish users will enter ','. I was starting to think that lsParseNumber() held the key. However, this: <cfset setLocale = "Spanish (Standard)"> <cfset fNumber = lsParseNumber("1200,15")> <cfset setLocale = "English (UK)"> <cfoutput>#fNumber#</cfoutput> outputs "120015" and not (as I'd anticipated) "1200.15". Does lsParseNumber() not work (Win CFMX 6.1) or does it work fine and have I got the wrong end of the stick? Thanks for any pointers. -- Aidan Whitehall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:244777 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
