Format Currency With More Than 2 Decimals
I've tried to use both round and money_format but I can't seem to get what i what.

I have a shopping cart on my web site and I had the tax to the subtotal for calculating the total.

However the following problem arises when using round():
$13.2818
becomes $13.28 (should be $13.29)

$13.2772
becomes $13.28 (works fine)

Is there another function that will ALWAYS round up after X number of decimals?

How do I output currency, as the zero on the end of the following value gets cut off:

XML Currency Script
I have a table in my database that has 4 different currencies in it (I plan to add more when i have this xml update script done). This has 4 fields, 2 of which are code (eg USD, JPY) and multiplier (USD is taken as 1, and the rest are multiplied from there). Now, I would like to automatically update these currency multipliers using this xml data feed:

"http://www.ecb.int/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml"

The only problem is, i dont know where to start with it. Now if anyone could help me either create an array from this data (so i could use $cymulti['USD'] would equal the rate from the data feed that had the currency USD) or create individual variables such as $USD would equal the rate from the data feed for the currency USD).

Currency Formatting
i'm trying to format the output of a record in access, which i am
pulling from through php (odbc) and the formatting is set at 4 decimal
places, which i don't want. i want currency and no decimal places.
I was trying to use this example, but i have no bloody idea howo to use it.
or where to put it for that matter:

<?php

$number = 1234.56;

// let's print the international format for the en_US locale
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US');
echo money_format('%i', $number)."
";
// USD 1,234.56

?>

Currency Symbols
I have a problem, we use a microsoft (mssql) product at work which stores currency symbols in the database.

Now when I retrieve these symbols from the database and try to echo them to the screen using php I just get a funny square box symbol instead of the actual currency symbol. Any idea on how I can get the symbols to show correctly?

I have a program which calculates some transactions and giving the total as numbers. for eg. 1000.00. I want to display it in words also. Like (One thousand only)..

Clean Currency Input
I wrote the following function as a "cleaner" for a currency input:

function is_currency($v) {
//returns a string with only the numbers for a currency format
$v = str_replace("$", "", $v);
$regex = '/(?:([0-9]+)|.)/'
if(preg_match($regex, trim($v) ) ){
$v = $v + 0.00001;
if (is_float($v)) {
return round($v, 2);
}
}
else {
return 0;
}
}

I want users to be able to put in things like:
NZ$12.34
$12.34
12
12.3456
1,002.23
and it should always translate into a number with two decimals (e.g. 12.34
or 12.00)

I am sure that this is probably the clumsiest way ever to do this. How can
I improve this function?

PS despite numerous efforts I am still super weak on regular expressions. I
can only copy them and not write them myself.

Language And Currency Changing Script ?
I am asking this on behalf of a friend who is - as I am - completely
ignorant of php. Almost.

He has CartWeaver shopping cart. The php version. He need to be able to
allow users to swap currency and language with a click, but still have
the cart connected to one single and the same data base.

He has been in touch with the developers, and their reply is that the
feature might be included in next version.

Question is: Can he in some way apply this in a way himself with some
link(s) to extra language and currency files? If so, how should it be
done? Are there any samples out there? (we have both searched the web
for a month - in vane).

How Do I Insert And Display Currency In PHP/MySQL?

Data Field With Currency Not Sorting Accurately
I have a datatable with a varchar field know as "price". At this time I have 3 rows in it; they are as follows: $ 18,500 $19,500 and $ 9,500. The problem is that when I try to sort in either ascending or descending order; it does not sort right. I know the problem lies in the $ 9,500, because I added a zero in front of the 9,500 (like this: $ 09,500) and it sorted fine. At first I thought it may have had something to do with the dollar sign, but it didn't because I removed and tested it without dollar sign and still had the same problem.

What I want to know is, how I can make datatable sort accurately with putting a zero in front of the 9,500. I tried to use a CSS style to cover up the zero, but when I did that, datatable still would not sort the right way. MySQL code in my web page is accurate, because you can take the $ 9,500 and add a 5 digit number and it works fine.

Format Problem
I've written a little content management system to allow moderators of a campaign group to enter articles into a mysql database.

Everything works fine but every now and then the diplayed page throws a wobbly (everything out of line and all the fonts altered) when double quotes are used; it's really wierd because it only happens now and then. I even have one paragraph in the database with two quotes; if I remove one of the set of quotes the page displays fine!

I'm thinking it has something to do with the <div> tag I'm using to display the articles;

<div style="padding:30;padding-left:80;padding-right:70;padding-bottom:40;color:000000" class="tah11">

<h2><?php echo nl2br($articleheading);?></h2>
<br /><br />

Format HTML With PHP?
I was wondering is there a PHP script or can one be written that formats HTML code as it leaves the server. i.e. My HTML code has tons of comments in it making it large, can a PHP script strip the comments out when a client requests the page. I don't want to remove the comments before putting it on the server because the comments help the several web developers communicate the what and whys of code modification.

Time Format
I am running a series of php scripts on a server located at an EST time zone. I need the scripts to reflect a PST timezone (+3 h). Is there a way to set the time format globally instead of modifying the scripts?

Number Format
I have a loop that selects prices from a database, prints each price out individually and then adds it to a variable, the "final price".

$thisprice = $row[ITEM_PRICE] * $row[SEL_ITEM_QTY];
$thisprice = number_format($thisprice, 2);
echo("$thisprice")
$finalprice = $finalprice + $thisprice;

But for some reason, when the $finalprice variable is set to more than $999, it won't display the correct price. Does anyone have any idea why this is? Does it have to do with the comma in the price? How can I fix this?

PHP Documentation In Pdf Format?
Trying to track down PHP5 documentation. Does it exist as Zend seem to think
it does judging by the link they put on this page.

As we're mentioning documentation, is there a proper Zend Studio manual?
Have the "quick start" and "reviewers" guide but for something that costs
$300, I would have expected something comprehensive.

.torrent Format?
With the popularity of Bittorrent I was surprised to see that I could find many resources on how to display a torrents information via PHP. I've searched google, websites, and forums for a while now and I've come up empty handed. I've found some other scripts that do it, buts the code is to complex as the scripts are rich with features that make it hard to tell whats really needed.

Does anyone know of any php examples, scripts, or tutorials that would help me extract information about torrents. Gathering information like seeders, leechers, file size, file content, ect.. would be very useful. I'm hoping that alot of you have resources to share because I'm really lost.

Data Format
I'm building a site for a client, and the access database they've given me wasn't formatted in any specific way. I've converted the database to MySql, but I'm running into a problem with one of the fields. The field contains a list of items that I'll need to output to a list when processed by the script I'm writing.

The problem I'm having is the list of items wasn't formatted in any special way. Other then entering all the data by hand, does anyone have any ideas on transforming the data in the field to an array? There are 700+ records and I really don't want to have to edit each one by hand unless it's a last resort.

Format Example:
Item1
Item 2, continued
Item 3 has 6 - parts
Item 4 has 7, parts

Time Format
I have a a UNIX format number that I want to convert into an Hours:Minutes:Seconds format for a stopwatch/countdown timer script I'm writing.

I used date("H:i:s", ($time)), but the problem is, if the period I'm counting is above 24 hours, the Hours reset to 0. So If I was counting down 49 Hours, It's be displayed as 01:00:00 instead of 49:00:00.

Format An Array
Im struggling with something probably really easy!! but just cant work it out!

I have an array that is populated like so

1, 1, 2007-08-16, 1, 2, 1
2, 1, 2007-08-16, 2, 2, 1
3, 1, 2007-08-16, 5, 6, 1
4, 2, 2007-08-16, 1, 3, 1
5, 2, 2007-08-16, 1, 5, 6

im trying cycle through this array and use the 2nd value as a group or header like below

1:
   1, 2, 1
   2, 2, 1
   5, 6, 1
2:
   1, 3, 1
   1, 5, 6

I cant get close - any ideas?
