| This feature uses JavaScript syntax |  |
Contents
Overview
To convert a number from a formatted string (containing symbols like "$" or "%") to a number using JavaScript you can use a function called ssParseNum.
Syntax
- ssParseNum( value, emptyok );
Where:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| value | Required. Is the value to be converted to a number (i.e: $5,000.00 and 5,000% will be converted to 5000) |
| emptyok | Optional. Is a true/false value
|
Examples
ssParseNum($5,000.50);
Will return: 5000.5
If you wish to display a ratio of two fields that are set to have currency formatting, you should convert the values to numbers using ssParseNum:
ssParseNum([field1])/ssParseNum([field2])
Requirements
This function is part of the sstools.js library and needs to be added to Browser Script custom fields or on template pages, sign-up pages etc. using the following syntax:
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="/sstools.js"></SCRIPT>
When Using "Show Currency Format in Edit Mode"
When using the "Show Currency Format in Edit Mode" setting for custom fields, the following syntax must be used:
- ssParseNumFromCurrency(value,getLocalestrByCurrency(code),1,emptyok); (getLocalestrByCurrency will get the "default" locale of the currency code, e.g. CAD will result in en-CA, NOT fr-CA)
OR
ssParseNumFromCurrency(value,locale,1,emptyok); (if you know the locale of the formatted currency, e.g. da-DK or fr-FR or fr-CA etc)
Where:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| value | Required. Is the value to be converted to a number (i.e: $5,000.00 and 5,000 will be converted to 5000) |
| emptyok | Optional. Is a true/false value
|
| code | Required. The three-letter currency code defined by ISO 4217. Example: JPY for Japanese Yen. |
Example:
- ssParseNumFromCurrency([YER Total revenue],getLocalestrByCurrency('CAD'),1,true) - ssParseNumFromCurrency([YER Total expenses],getLocalestrByCurrency('CAD'),1,true)
- or
- ssParseNumFromCurrency([YER Total revenue],'fr-CA',1,true) - ssParseNumFromCurrency([YER Total expenses],'fr-CA',1,true)
