CultureInfo格式化字符串

Question

I want to show pound sign and the format 0.00 ie £45.00, £4.10 . I am using the following statement:

<td style="text-align:center"><%# Convert.ToString(Convert.ToSingle(Eval("tourOurPrice")) / Convert.ToInt32(Eval("noOfTickets")), new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB")) %></td>

But it is not working. What is the problem.

Can any one help me???

Answer 1

Use the Currency standard format string along with the string.Format method that takes a format provider:

string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB"), "{0:C}", amount)

The CultureInfo can act as a format provider and will also get you the correct currency symbol for the culture.

Your example would then read (spaced for readability):

<td style="text-align:center">
    <%# string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB"), 
                      "{0:C}", 
                      Convert.ToSingle(Eval("tourOurPrice")) 
                             / Convert.ToInt32(Eval("noOfTickets")))
    %>
</td>

Answer 2

怎么样

<%# (Convert.ToSingle(Eval("tourOurPrice")) / Convert.ToInt32(Eval("noOfTickets"))).ToString("C", New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB")) %>

Answer 3

尝试指定确切的货币格式

String.Format(...CultureInfo("en-GB"), "{0:C}"....

Answer 4

This should work:

<td style="text-align:center">
<%# String.Format( new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB"), "{0:c}", Convert.ToSingle(Eval("tourOurPrice")) / Convert.ToInt32(Eval("noOfTickets")) %>
</td>

I wanted to add an additional related answer to show how to use a cloned CultureInfo object in a string.Format() or StringBuffer.AppendFormat(). Instead of currency though, my need was to format the AM/PM designator for my employer's style guide. Here is what I did:

var culture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Clone();
culture.DateTimeFormat.AMDesignator = "a.m.";
culture.DateTimeFormat.PMDesignator = "p.m.";
....
var msg = new StringBuilder();
msg.AppendFormat(culture,"Last modified: {0:M/d/yyyy h:mm tt}", ad.DateModified);

You can do the same thing with string.Format():

string strMsg = string.Format(culture, "Last modified: {0:M/d/yyyy h:mm tt}", ad.DateModified);
