Add comma to numbers every three digits
@Paul Creasey had the simplest solution as the regex, but here it is as a simple jQuery plugin:
$.fn.digits = function(){ return this.each(function(){ $(this).text( $(this).text().replace(/(\d)(?=(\d\d\d)+(?!\d))/g, "$1,") ); })}You could then use it like this:
$("span.numbers").digits();
You could use Number.toLocaleString():
var number = 1557564534;document.body.innerHTML = number.toLocaleString();// 1,557,564,534
Something like this if you're into regex, not sure of the exact syntax for the replace tho!
MyNumberAsString.replace(/(\d)(?=(\d\d\d)+(?!\d))/g, "$1,");
