Is there a routine to do this in web2py? I tried import locale in the controller and then use {{=locale.format('$%.2f', amount,True)}} in my layout, but I get locale is not defined..... well, never mind. I just got this to work: {{import locale}} {{locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,('en','ascii'))}} {{='$' + locale.format('%.2f',total,True)}} is there a better way to do this in a file.html file? thx, -wj -- Timothy Farrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Computer Guy Statewide General Insurance Agency (www.swgen.com) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
