Question

I have seen that some browsers localize the input type=\"number\" notation of numbers.

I don't know if this helps but I stumbled here when searching for this same problem, only from an input point of view (i.e. I noticed that my was accepting both a comma and a dot when typing the value, but only the latter was being bound to the angularjs model I assigned to the input). So I solved by jotting down this quick directive:

.directive("replaceComma", function() {
    return {
        restrict: "A",
        link: function(scope, element) {
            element.on("keydown", function(e) {
                if(e.keyCode === 188) {
                    this.value += ".";
                    e.preventDefault();
                }
            });
        }
    };
});

Then, on my html, simply: will substitute commas with dots on-the-fly to prevent users from inputting invalid (from a javascript standpoint, not a locales one!) numbers. Cheers.
