Transform output of Php

Question

If you example I have this php:

$var  = $_POST['somefield'];

and suppose the value of 'somefield' is 2050, how do I make php output this as:

2,050

instead of

**2050** ?

maybe edit your question?? 2,050 instead of 2,050 ? My gosh they are same. — DivinesLight

Assuming you meant: "2,050 instead of 2050"

Now you want to format the no, so that thousands are seperated by commas. Please have a look at This.

And as for your code you can do this (but please read that link before)

$var = $_POST['somefield'];
$var = number_format($var);
