Help me with coma seperators

Coma separators
I am asking for help. How can I make financial or cash figures have coma separators in php programming using mysql as database. For example if I have one million and fifty cents dollars. I want numbers to appear as $1,000,000.50. So how do I ensure that comas separators are coming automatically.

number_format has a number of examples. Also see the user comments for more.

$number = 1000000.5;
$format = number_format ($number,2);
echo $number." becomes ".$format;
