http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/text will do what you need. Take look at the example with resource property "format.money" and note the link to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/MessageFormat.html which has the info you need to build a format pattern. You could also do the same thing with JSTL if you prefer: http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jstl/1.1/docs/tlddocs/fmt/tld-summary.html
