Question

I have an issue with setlocale() in PHP when using functions such as money_format().

In my localhost, such functions only work if my setlocale() value is en_GB. However, on my live server the same functions will only work if setlocale() is set to en_GB.UTF8.

So my question is: what causes the different requirements? As presently my configuration file has a dirty if/else statement to find what server it’s being ran on and dynamically specifies the setlocale() value.

Answer 1

what is the php version is there a diference ? diferent os ?

you can use this just change euro to what you need for money

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');
setlocale(LC_ALL, array('en_GB.UTF8','en_GB@euro','en_GB','english'));
