Alternative to money_format() Function in PHP on Windows Platform

Question

I am using the money_format() function in PHP, which gives the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function money_format()
         


        

Answer 1

I always just used this to manually add the dollar sign:

// for $k = 53.234234978
$k = "$ " . number_format($k, 2);
// output = $ 53.23
