Format Currency

[gple]

I want to take a variable and make sure that I output to the browser in dollar format ie if I set $price=100. I want to make sure that $price appears as 100.00. in turn make sure that when $price=100.97 is outputted as 100.97

<?php

$price = number_format($price);

?>

I still dont see the .00. If it is .97 it gets rounded up to the next dollar

[Barand]

echo '$'.number_format($price, 2);

 

or

 

printf ('$%0.2f', $price);
