Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. the money_format() function returns the exact same value as that of strfmon() without any modifications. Any unexpected output is likely to be a fault in glibc. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-11 20:56:49] benjcarson at digitaljunkies dot ca Description: ------------ When using the format '%(n' (i.e. represent negative numbers in parenthesis), money_format still prints out a negative sign when its second parameter is 0.00*-1. It works fine for the following values, however: -0.00 -0 0*-1 -1*0 -1*0.00 -1.00*0 (Note: echo(0.00*-1) prints out -0.) Interestingly, using gcc-3.3.4 and glibc-2.3.2, the following fails in a similar fashion: strfmon(buf, sizeof(buf), "%(n", atof("-0.00")); /* buf = "-0.00" */ double val = 0.00 * -1; strfmon(buf, sizeof(buf), "%(n", val); /* buf = "-0.00" */ double val = -1*0.00; strfmon(buf, sizeof(buf), "%(n", val); /* buf = "-0.00" */ It appears it might have something to do with strfmon()'s handling of 'negative zero', except money_format() works correctly for values where strfmon() fails (e.g. -1*0.00). Reproduce code: --------------- echo money_format("%(n", 0.00*-1) . "\n"; Expected result: ---------------- 0.00 or even (0.00) Actual result: -------------- -0.00 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29620&edit=1
