I have a problem in that currencies are appearing on my site as ?19.99 rather than £19.99.

eg.
http://www.uk-mkivs.net/forum/uk_ebay.asp
http://www.uk-mkivs.net/forum/classViewAds.asp?catID=16

I have tries Session.LCID = 2057 (UK) on the page AND editing the config.asp but still doesn't work? Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Thanks in advance

what happens if you use & pound; (no space after the &) instead of £ in your code?

I think the classifieds mod uses FormatCurrency which takes the settings from the locale, £ is not directly coded

I have made a test page that works fine
http://www.uk-mkivs.net/test.asp

<%
response.write("no session.lcid set: " & formatcurrency("19.99") & "<br>")
session.lcid = 2057
response.write("session.lcid = 2057: " & formatcurrency("19.99"))
%>


v. strange!!

Anyone know why you need session.lcid in config.asp??
