下面是Patrick Desjardins（别名Daok）代码，添加了一些注释和一些小改动：

/*
decimal_sep: character used as decimal separator, it defaults to '.' when omitted
thousands_sep: char used as thousands separator, it defaults to ',' when omitted
*/
Number.prototype.toMoney = function(decimals, decimal_sep, thousands_sep)
{
   var n = this,
   c = isNaN(decimals) ? 2 : Math.abs(decimals), // If decimal is zero we must take it. It means the user does not want to show any decimal
   d = decimal_sep || '.', // If no decimal separator is passed, we use the dot as default decimal separator (we MUST use a decimal separator)

   /*
   According to [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/411352/how-best-to-determine-if-an-argument-is-not-sent-to-the-javascript-function]
   the fastest way to check for not defined parameter is to use typeof value === 'undefined'
   rather than doing value === undefined.
   */
   t = (typeof thousands_sep === 'undefined') ? ',' : thousands_sep, // If you don't want to use a thousands separator you can pass empty string as thousands_sep value

   sign = (n < 0) ? '-' : '',

   // Extracting the absolute value of the integer part of the number and converting to string
   i = parseInt(n = Math.abs(n).toFixed(c)) + '',

   j = ((j = i.length) > 3) ? j % 3 : 0;
   return sign + (j ? i.substr(0, j) + t : '') + i.substr(j).replace(/(\d{3})(?=\d)/g, "$1" + t) + (c ? d + Math.abs(n - i).toFixed(c).slice(2) : '');
}

这里有一些测试：

// Some tests (do not forget parenthesis when using negative numbers and number with no decimals)
alert(123456789.67392.toMoney() + '\n' + 123456789.67392.toMoney(3) + '\n' + 123456789.67392.toMoney(0) + '\n' + (123456).toMoney() + '\n' + (123456).toMoney(0) + '\n' + 89.67392.toMoney() + '\n' + (89).toMoney());

// Some tests (do not forget parenthesis when using negative numbers and number with no decimals)
alert((-123456789.67392).toMoney() + '\n' + (-123456789.67392).toMoney(-3));

次要变化包括：

移动了一点Math.abs（小数），只有当不是NaN时才能执行。decimal_sep不能再是空字符串（必须使用某种十进制分隔符）我们使用typeof thousand_sep===“undefined”，如How best to determine if a argument is not send to JavaScript function中所建议的不需要（+n||0），因为这是Number对象

JSFiddle公司

使用正则表达式的较短方法（用于插入空格、逗号或点）：

    Number.prototype.toCurrencyString = function(){
        return this.toFixed(2).replace(/(\d)(?=(\d{3})+\b)/g, '$1 ');
    }

    n = 12345678.9;
    alert(n.toCurrencyString());

我使用库Globalize（来自Microsoft）：

这是一个很好的项目，可以本地化数字、货币和日期，并根据用户的语言环境以正确的方式自动格式化它们。。。尽管它应该是一个jQuery扩展，但它目前是一个100%独立的库。我建议大家都试试看！：）

http://code.google.com/p/javascript-number-formatter/:

短、快、灵活但独立。只有75行，包括MIT许可证信息、空白行和注释。接受标准数字格式，如#、##0.00或带否定的-000.####。接受任何国家/地区格式，如###0,00，#，###.##，#‘###.##或任何类型的非编号符号。接受任意数字分组。#、##、#0.000或#、####0.##均有效。接受任何冗余/防傻瓜格式。##、###、##。#或0#、#00####0#都正常。自动数字舍入。简单的界面，只需提供如下掩码和值：格式（“0.0000”，3.141592）

快速快捷的解决方案（适用于任何地方！）

(12345.67).toFixed(2).replace(/\d(?=(\d{3})+\.)/g, '$&,');  // 12,345.67

此解决方案背后的思想是用第一个匹配和逗号替换匹配的部分，即“$&，”。匹配是使用前瞻方法完成的。您可以将表达式读为“匹配一个数字，如果它后面跟着三个数字集（一个或多个）和一个点的序列”。

测验：

1        --> "1.00"
12       --> "12.00"
123      --> "123.00"
1234     --> "1,234.00"
12345    --> "12,345.00"
123456   --> "123,456.00"
1234567  --> "1,234,567.00"
12345.67 --> "12,345.67"

扩展短解决方案

您还可以扩展Number对象的原型，以添加对任意数量的小数[0..n]和数字组大小[0..x]的额外支持：

/**
 * Number.prototype.format(n, x)
 * 
 * @param integer n: length of decimal
 * @param integer x: length of sections
 */
Number.prototype.format = function(n, x) {
    var re = '\\d(?=(\\d{' + (x || 3) + '})+' + (n > 0 ? '\\.' : '$') + ')';
    return this.toFixed(Math.max(0, ~~n)).replace(new RegExp(re, 'g'), '$&,');
};

1234..format();           // "1,234"
12345..format(2);         // "12,345.00"
123456.7.format(3, 2);    // "12,34,56.700"
123456.789.format(2, 4);  // "12,3456.79"

超扩展短解决方案

在此超级扩展版本中，您可以设置不同的分隔符类型：

/**
 * Number.prototype.format(n, x, s, c)
 * 
 * @param integer n: length of decimal
 * @param integer x: length of whole part
 * @param mixed   s: sections delimiter
 * @param mixed   c: decimal delimiter
 */
Number.prototype.format = function(n, x, s, c) {
    var re = '\\d(?=(\\d{' + (x || 3) + '})+' + (n > 0 ? '\\D' : '$') + ')',
        num = this.toFixed(Math.max(0, ~~n));

    return (c ? num.replace('.', c) : num).replace(new RegExp(re, 'g'), '$&' + (s || ','));
};

12345678.9.format(2, 3, '.', ',');  // "12.345.678,90"
123456.789.format(4, 4, ' ', ':');  // "12 3456:7890"
12345678.9.format(0, 3, '-');       // "12-345-679"

使用toLocaleString以货币的语言敏感表示形式格式化货币（使用ISO 4217货币代码）。

(2500).toLocaleString("en-GB", {style: "currency", currency: "GBP", minimumFractionDigits: 2})

avenmore的南非兰特代码片段示例：

console.log（（2500）.toLocaleString（“en-ZA”，｛style:“currency”，currency:“ZAR”，minimumFractionDigits:2｝））//->2 500,00兰特console.log（（2500）.toLocaleString（“en-GB”，｛style:“currency”，currency:“ZAR”，minimumFractionDigits:2｝））//->2500欧元
