asp.net mvc set number format default decimal thousands separators

Question

How can I set both default decimal and thousands separator for formatting number in asp.net mvc regardless of culture?

Answer 1

I will post the code that finally worked for me. On controller, on OnActionExecuting function:

ViewBag.CurrentNumberFormat = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US", false).NumberFormat;
ViewBag.CurrentNumberFormat.NumberDecimalDigits = 2;
ViewBag.CurrentNumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator = "~";
ViewBag.CurrentNumberFormat.NumberGroupSeparator = " ";

and in View:

 @((1234567.435).ToString("#,###.##", ViewBag.CurrentNumberFormat))
