Thanks, that worked. I also discovered that I could simply add "<?python from turbogears.i18n.format import format_decimal ?>" to my template to be able to use it.

I already use a custom validator (extends the Number validator). I defined a schema for the validation. The validation of submitted values works. Now I added also from_python() to my validator but it didn't worked. Validation of my input still worked but the data from the database didn't get formated. I had to move the validator from the schema to the validator attribute of the widget to get it working (and then even the inherited from_python() worked). Has someone an idea why it works when I add my validator to the widget but not if I do it from a schema definition?
