I have had a request to format negative dollar values as -$123.45
I have been using the PHO number_format as in the following code fragment;
$" . number_format(AMOUNT, 2)
This provides a result of $-123.45
I thought this would be easy ... but google and w3schools have not helped
... yet
Any suggestions ?
Thank you
