I decided to ask this question in this group since it is quite international and chances of someone encountering the dilemma is higher than other places. Its not really a bug or stripes related, but more of a Java conundrum.
We have client from Europe and USA trading on the same platform. In US, decimal separator is a dot (.) while in EU its a comma (,). So buying stock in US one would enter price as 4.01 and in EU it would be 4,01. Assuming that the user is set to a proper Locale, the above mentioned works fine. The problem is when EU client tries to use US notation while under EU Locale, then 4.01 would be parsed as 401.0 - that's a problem since a lot of EU brokers are thinking in US notation. Has anyone come across this dilemma? And if yes, any hints on how to overcome it???
