Heheh...Lee I'm not talking about functions in php :)

I'm talking about how to do something like this...
Write some action or filter or something which will automatically return
formated number. For example you have fields price_netto, price_brutto,
price discounted. Normally I would alter template and do this:
<?php echo number_format($price_netto, 2); ?>

which echo this: 156.70 (in DB there is 156.7)

and do it for each field. So i am thinking about some Hook or something
which will do number_format automatically. So in templates I leave this:
<?php echo $price_netto; ?>

which will also echo this: 156.70 (in DB there is 156.7)
