Commas in a number field

I have developed a web site for a real estate agency for which I have built a custom web app. The web app has a number fields that display information about individual properties in both list and detail formats. Some of the fields I created in the web app are "number" fields. I used number fields for price and square feet because I also have a search form linked to the web app. I needed to have a min and max search capability for these two fields, which the "number" field provides automatically. However, being a "number" field, it does not allow for the use of commas in the field, which is a client requirement. If a comma is used in the web app field, the display is null. For example, the client needs the price to be displayed like this (1,300,000) vs (1300000). Here is a link to the test site: Anne Rogers Realty Group, Inc - Featured Listings.  Note the price and square feet fields on both the list an detail views for the properties. Is there any way around this problem? Thanks in advance

Well you can do anything from developer's perspective but asking client to put same value twice can make you look unprofessional.
Here's what I did for many house listing websites.
1. Client puts price in pure number format ( e.g. 500000 )
2. wrap the price value with a tag in List/Detail template e.g.   <span class="house-price">{tag_price}</span>
3. then at the end of the page put a jQuery snippet which would globally format the prices ( e.g. $('.house-price').formatCurrency(); )
   Here's one I use
  https://code.google.com/p/jquery-formatcurrency/
   even if you're not familiar with jQuery it's pretty easy to follow
No more complain from client

  • How do I get the iPad to stop inserting commas in a number entered in a field on safari?

    I am filling out a form on Safari. It asks for my bank routing number, which I filled in. Moving on to the next field, I look up to find the iPad has entered commas in this number. It will not allow me to remove them. I turned off Autofill, etc. nothing seems to work.

    I think that this thread addresses your question: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3408352?start=0&tstart=0
    Unfortunately, it doesn't look like there's a fix for the problem yet, though..

  • Strip comma from a numeric field

    Hi all,
    Will you please help me providing sql statement to strip commas from a number/numeric field in the BI repository logical column? I do not want to use cast function to convert to character because we need to keep that field as numeric.
    I could only find string expressions to remove commas. I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,

    Thanks,Commas in a Numeric field, I could not understand it. It must be a VARCHAR column with only Numeric data, is it?
    you can use something like
    with data(col) as
      select '10,000,000' from dual
    select replace(col, ',') rep, translate(col, '1234567890,', '1234567890') tr
      from data;Maybe, if you can post some example table and sample data, we might be able to help better.

  • Auto increment number field

    Hello,
    I would like to have a number field to be auto increment. Ho can I do that in Oracle must I use some code for it or can I make the field auto increment by itself.

    ThanksIt's a long standing gripe of mine. You must use code, and the appropriate solution is a sequence and a trigger, eg
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create table t(
      2      id number not null primary key
      3  ,   c1 char(100));
    Table created.
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create sequence seq_t;
    Sequence created
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create or replace trigger bir_t
      2  before insert on t
      3  for each row
      4  begin
      5  select seq_t.nextval into :new.id from dual;
      6  end;
      7  /
    Trigger created.
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >insert into t(c1) values ('row 1');
    1 row created.
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >commit;
    Commit complete.
    SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >select * from t;
            ID C1
             1 row 1I'd much prefer
    create table t (
       id number primary key default seq_t.nextval
    ,  c1 char(100));

  • Reg: a tilde in NUMBER field-

    Hi Experts,
    I've a doubt regarding NUMBER field, where a tilde ~ was stored. Just want to understand how that got inserted in that column?
    When I gave a DUMP of that column it shows like this [value | DUMP(value)]:
    -- In SQL Developer:
    Infinity | Typ=2 Len=2: ff,65
    Infinity | Typ=2 Len=2: ff,65
    -- In another IDE (called SQL Tools and SQL*Plus):
    ~ | Typ=2 Len=2: ff,65
    ~ | Typ=2 Len=2: ff,65
    Also, I read from Oracle docs that NUMBER field can also accept values like POSTIVE INFINITY (takes 2 bytes) and NEGATIVE INFINITY (1 byte).
    Any pointers regarding this?

    Ranit,
    Is that really a number column..??? I tried with binary_float this way:

  • CharacterSeparatedValuesFormatOptions and Problems with a Number field

    I want to export a report in a comma separated type format using CharacterSeparatedValuesFormatOptions.  I set the Delimiter option to "" because I don't want the quotes around the fields.  The problem is if the report contains a number field that contains a comma.  For example if my data is:
    abc             7,459.84             xyz
    The data exported looks like:
    abc,7,459.84,xyz
    Is there a way to eliminate the comma from the number data during the export, otherwise it looks like I have an extra field?

    Before you try getting this working in your application, you need to try it in the Crystal Reports Designer. If you export from the designer setting the Separated Values Export Options dialog, are you able to get the export you are looking for?
    If not, then it will not be possible to achieve the export at runtime either.

    If you are exporting to Excel, it may be Excel that is changing the number format.

  • Address Book/iSync - email addresses moving to phone number fields

    I'm not sure what is causing this, but I'm noticing that email addresses in my cards are moving to phone number fields. I originally thought this had something to do with cards that had no phone number in them, only an email address, but now I"m realizing that's not the case.
    I fixes all cards last night and just a minute ago, when I was in Address Book I noticed some or all of the email addresses had moved again. I reverted to my backup from last night and it fixed things, but I'm wondering what's going to cause those addresses to move again.
    I do use iSync to sync my AB contacts to my Motorola phone (I think I have it set up where it's one way, computer to phone) and I have Entourage that's using my AB contacts to populate its address book.
    Any thoughts about what in my environment is causing this?
    -John

    Thank you for the suggestion. I did this, but noticed that some cards were still messed up. So I reverted back to a clean copy of my address book from last night. Then I went to iSync and synchronized with my Motorola phone. That's when iSync says that it's going to modify over 5% of my contacts in AB (122) at which point I said okay. Problem appears to be that the cards it modifies is random.
    Now to make matters worse, it appears that if I repeat this process over and over (revert, iSync, look through cards), there is no pattern to which cards are changing. I don't even know how to troubleshoot this. I'd love make iSync go one way - computer to phone - so that the phone can never write information to the computer. Is that possible?
    I'm sure this needs to go to a different section...

    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I'm looking at the same problem here. I found the table SER03 in which you can enter the the material document. This returns 1 line in this table and from this one you need the OBKNR element
    You can copy this data and paste it into table OBJK element OBKNR and this returns all serialnumbers for the relevant material document.
    My problem is that i can't get these items on the sapscript. (WESCHEINVERS 1,2 or 3)

    Raghu

    Hi Raghu,
    Check table SER01(Document Header for Serial Numbers for Delivery).
    OBJK is the object table and you will have SERNR as serial number in this table.
    check table EQUI
                          EQUI -SERGE
                          EQUI-GERNR.
    EQUI-SERGE is Manufacturer serial number.chk if this is the one u r looking for.
    MARC-SERNP.
    key in plant and material in this table to fetch the Serial number profile of the material.
    Check in IKPF AND ISEG Tables... ( inventory )
    MSEG~EQUNR
    Hope it will hep u

  • How to prevent a number field from getting summed?

    I want to display the # of clients per a certain ID number. (In order to show the duplicate records by setting a filter in the # of clients field). However, this works if the ID number is a text field... but it doesn't work if the ID number is a metric of client... or number. It gets summed up, I get the total, and the % of clients turns to be 1.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Example:
    I have 3 clients:
    Column A
    55
    55
    44
    21
    I want the following output:
    55 | 2
    I get the desired result by adding a second column (# of clients) and creating a filter to get results only if the value is > 2.
    The problem is when "Column A" is a number field. If it is a number field, I get total sum of the records (55+55+44+21) and a value of "1" if I add the # of clients column.
    Is it clearer now? ideas?

  • Right alignment of Number Field in OAF Page

    if(origContSumBean!=null) {
    origContSumBean.setAttributeValue(CURRENCY_CODE,new OADataBoundValueViewObject(origContSumBean,"CurrencyCode"));

  • Default Value in Number field in Travel Expense Report

    Dear All
    I have a requirement from my client's side. In the Expense Report, when I coose an expense receipt, say for TAXI, I get a value in the field "Number". I know that the value can be configured or defualted based upon the "From" and "To" date.
    My client needs the number field to get defaulted, based on the "Expense Receipt" chosen. For example if somone chooses "Parking Fees" the number field should get defaulted automatically by the value 3 and if somone chooses "Telephone Expenses" the number field should get defaulted automatically by the value 2.
    Is there in any user exit or anything that takes care of this?

    You may take your ABAPer's help to enhence the report.it would be small change.Might be you need access key for this change from your Basis team.
