Just write a custom function. Here is one and you can expand on the formats

 

<?php
function curr_format($curr, $amount){
  switch ($curr){
  case "EUR":
  $ret = "€".number_format($amount, 2, ",", " ");
  break;
  case "US":
  $ret = "&#36;".number_format($amount, 2, ".", ",");
  break;
  }
return $ret;
}
echo curr_format("EUR", "2568.2523"); // output is €2 568,25
?>

Hi I did see that there is a money format function listed here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.money-format.php although I don't think its fuctional on windows for some reason.

 

very basic but have you tried this:  :)

 

<?php

$value = 1234.56;

$euro= "€";

$output= $euro.$value;

echo $output;

?>
