Formatting numbers...

Hi

Using sprintf atm, but just an observation...

To format a % (ie a number between 0 and 1 eg 0.45) you have to multiply up by 100 and use the code %.0f%% (or something like it).

Why?


Why do I need to multiply up? Doesn't PHP figure that if you add % then the number has to be a percentage and use 0 - 1 as 0 to 100% ?
I had to redo all my values in the table as all it seems to add is the % sign and may be decimal places. Found this really weird.


Another format I am currently looking at is the currency. x,xx0.00 is the format I want...
%0,01.2f
Doesn't work :/ investigating further...
