Using commas in textbox and submitting data?

[slyte33]

Hello, I am making a new mmorpg game and I was curious if it is possible to use commas in textboxes, and then when submitting the data, strip the commas and submit.

 

This way, if a player has... $1,000,000 and they want to deposit it in their bank, they could simply enter 1,000,000 and not 1000000.

 

I hope this explains it, and help is much appreciated.

 

Thanks, Slyte

$richman = "10,00000,000000,000000";

$richman = str_replace(",","",$richman);

echo "$richman";

Works perfect, thanks!

You should probably also convert periods (.) and dont rely on everyone using commas

In addition i would remove whitespace etc.

$text = trim(str_replace(array(",","."), "", $text));
