Thanks. I was hoping I could use 'format' to get this done by using
something as simple as '%,13d', but looks like I'll have to resort to a
java method and CSS.
According to tapestry documentation format takes a java.text.Format, so
wondering why '#,###' doesn't work.
Yep, it takes a Format, but you provided a String, and Tapestry itself
only provides a coercion from String to DateFormat, not to NumberFormat.
Summary: the component is using a DateFormat instead of a NumberFormat. If
you passed a NumberFormat to the format parameter, it would work.
You can very easily create an OutputNumber component if you want. Or, not
so easily, create a binding in which you can specify the value and the
format.
Regarding the alignment: it should be done by CSS because there's no other
way of doing that (unless you want to resort to formatting attributes in
HTML, which suck). This is not a limitation of Tapestry: it's just how
HTML works.
