Formatting Numbers

[tccdover]

Hi!

I know I should know this! I have just started with PHP - I have used ASP in the past. If I bring a field from a recordset and place it on the page, I can use dreamweaver to format it to use commas when it is over 1,000 or decimal points. I can't figure out how to do the same thing in PHP! (using MySQL - field set to float?)

Thanks!
