Returns a pattern string to format and parse currency values according to the client's user preferences and ISO 4217 currency code.
navigator.globalization.getCurrencyPattern(currencyCode, successCallback, errorCallback);
Returns the pattern to the successCallback
with a properties
object as a parameter. That object should contain the following properties:
pattern: The currency pattern to format and parse currency values. The patterns follow Unicode Technical Standard #35. (String)
code: The ISO 4217 currency code for the pattern. (String)
fraction: The number of fractional digits to use when parsing and formatting currency. (Number)
rounding: The rounding increment to use when parsing and formatting. (Number)
decimal: The decimal symbol to use for parsing and formatting. (String)
grouping: The grouping symbol to use for parsing and formatting. (String)
The inbound currencyCode
parameter should be a String
of one of the ISO 4217 currency codes, for example ‘USD’.
If there is an error obtaining the pattern, then the errorCallback
executes with a GlobalizationError
object as a parameter. The error's expected code is GlobalizationError.FORMATTING\_ERROR
.
When the browser is set to the en\_US
locale and the selected currency is United States Dollars, this example displays a popup dialog with text similar to the results that follow:
navigator.globalization.getCurrencyPattern( 'USD', function (pattern) { alert('pattern: ' + pattern.pattern + '\n' + 'code: ' + pattern.code + '\n' + 'fraction: ' + pattern.fraction + '\n' + 'rounding: ' + pattern.rounding + '\n' + 'decimal: ' + pattern.decimal + '\n' + 'grouping: ' + pattern.grouping); }, function () { alert('Error getting pattern\n'); } );
Expected result:
pattern: $#,##0.##;($#,##0.##) code: USD fraction: 2 rounding: 0 decimal: . grouping: ,
