<bean:write> format








Has Anyone used the format attribute to format currency?

I have a property in an ActionForm which will hold a dollar figure and want
to format when displaying.

ie.


listPrice = 930

Need to Display $930.00


or

listPrice = 1299.9

Needs to Display $1,299.90


I have attempted the following

<bean:write name="myForm" property="listPrice" format="\\$\\d+\\.\\d\\d"/>

but that prints

\$\D+\930.\d\d

not exactly what I was hoping for :)
