Question

How do you display $ dollar signs and % signs?

I'm creating a calculator but I cannot display a $ before the number unless there is a space. We've tried various Javascripts but it's becoming more work than it is worth. What are some tips and formatting options?

    Are you talking about displaying it in a text entry?

    Yes. So I can't write $$$var_somedollarvalue$$.

    In JavaScript you just need to append the amount you want to display with the dollar sign.

     

    window.var_somedollarvalue = "$"+window.var_amount;

     

    I created a variable called var_amount, which is the number that is calculated.

     

    Your test caption would just be: $$var_somedollarvalue$$
