Is it me or does "money_format" not work?
 

I tried using money_format on my home server and said function doesn't exist( using the latest version of xampp windows version )

You should seriously check out WAMP, which is a far more better webserver than xampp! Check it out, and see if it works on WAMP ;)

Why not simply install Apache, PHP, and MySQL?

cuz xampps quick and easy ;)...(wamp aint secure -.-...atleast for my phpmyadmin I gotta close access 2 it some how). then i turned my server offline from the public -.-..

I have no idea why it says that, and Google doesn't yield any relevant results, either. Are you sure you typed the function correctly in your code?

Note: The function money_format() is only defined if the system has strfmon capabilities. For example, Windows does not, so money_format() is undefined in Windows.

There's your problem,

Edit: Oops, WinSrev beat me to it but the point is worth repeating. :-)

Hmmm. I thought I'd used it in Windows Vista before - obviously not!

ah no wonder heh...that sucks :).
