Displaying thousands with a comma!

[glenelkins]

Ok quick thing

If there is a price inserted into the databae (as a double) say: 295000, how can i then get that to display as such: 295,000

[code]<?php
$price = number_format($price,2,".",",");
?>[/code]

I actuall did it like this:

[code]
$tmp_price = $properties['price'];
$price = chunk_split("$tmp_price", 3, ",");
echo "£" . $price;
[/code]

But now i have a comma at the end of the string, how can i remove this?

Why dont you just use the number_format functon? It does all the formating for you. All you need to do is provide the thousands and decimal seperator. See SA's post above.
