This is currently an open issue in the issues portion of the google code site. If you come up with a patch, please send it to me and I’ll update the source code. Otherwise, I’ll add another comment here when the issue is resolved.

I tried this plugin which is really great, but I found one thing I was not quite sure about, when I was trying to put in 33.80, the result was $33.79 rather than $33.80 I wanted to see.

I am guessing the problem might be with “num = Math.floor(num * 100);” in the source code.

Would you please kindly tell me if there is any way to get it right.

Many thanks,

Jun

First off, you should be using the plugin from google code. Here is an example of how to convert an item with the same class

<script type="text/javascript">
  $(function() {
    $('.money').formatCurrency();
  });
</script>
<div>
  <span class="money subTotal">5000</span>
  <span class="money total">10000</span>
</div>

Sub Total : 5000
Total : 10000

On line 14, you replace the dollar sign:

num = num.replace(/\$|\,/g, '');

Shouldnt this be modified to adapt to the settings.symbol value?

I created a modified version of your plugin.

http://saxxon.org/jquery.formatCurrency.js

Some example:

HTML:
123456789000

$('.currency').formatCurrency({format:'en'});

Result: € 123,456,789,000.00

$('.currency').formatCurrency({format:'hu', symbol:'dollar'});

Result: 123 456 789 000,00 $

I hope it will usefull others.
