Hi!

I am coding a quite simple php form where many of the input forms are going to be filled with numbers. Is there a simple way I could get the numbers separated by thousands? Like the form showing 100 000 instead of 100000?

Thanks in advance!

Do you want your output to show the numbers that way, or do you want to change after a user inputs a value and leaves the editbox. In the last case, this would be more of a javascript issue.

I would prefer if it changed after the user inputs a value ald leaves the editbox, but really any way works.

Ok for you guys suggesting php, he stated:

That suggests JS. I don't think he wants to submit the blasted form every time he changes the edit box contents.
