formatKey negative numbers

[chamal desilva <ch...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I am using bean:write tag to display properties
(return type Double) of my form bean.

I am also using formatKey attribute to format the
output. 

This is the format key I have mentioned in
ApplicationResources.properties file.

display.currency=#,## 0.00

Formatting works fine. But negative numbers are NOT
displayed with minus character. How can I format
negative numbers to be displayed with minus character.

My other question is can I format negative numbers
within brackets.

Thanking You,
Chamal.

Hi,

the <bean:write> is using the 
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html to 
format number, you can get a idea from this page how to format numbers,

Thanks,

Nuwan
