+1向Jonathan M提供原始方法。由于这是一个明确的货币格式化程序，我继续在输出中添加了货币符号（默认为“$”），并添加了一个默认逗号作为千位分隔符。如果您实际上不需要货币符号（或千位分隔符），只需使用“”（空字符串）作为它的参数。

Number.prototype.formatMoney = function(decPlaces, thouSeparator, decSeparator, currencySymbol) {
    // check the args and supply defaults:
    decPlaces = isNaN(decPlaces = Math.abs(decPlaces)) ? 2 : decPlaces;
    decSeparator = decSeparator == undefined ? "." : decSeparator;
    thouSeparator = thouSeparator == undefined ? "," : thouSeparator;
    currencySymbol = currencySymbol == undefined ? "$" : currencySymbol;

    var n = this,
        sign = n < 0 ? "-" : "",
        i = parseInt(n = Math.abs(+n || 0).toFixed(decPlaces)) + "",
        j = (j = i.length) > 3 ? j % 3 : 0;

    return sign + currencySymbol + (j ? i.substr(0, j) + thouSeparator : "") + i.substr(j).replace(/(\d{3})(?=\d)/g, "$1" + thouSeparator) + (decPlaces ? decSeparator + Math.abs(n - i).toFixed(decPlaces).slice(2) : "");
};

String.prototype.toPrice = function () {
    var v;
    if (/^\d+(,\d+)$/.test(this))
        v = this.replace(/,/, '.');
    else if (/^\d+((,\d{3})*(\.\d+)?)?$/.test(this))
        v = this.replace(/,/g, "");
    else if (/^\d+((.\d{3})*(,\d+)?)?$/.test(this))
        v = this.replace(/\./g, "").replace(/,/, ".");
    var x = parseFloat(v).toFixed(2).toString().split("."),
    x1 = x[0],
    x2 = ((x.length == 2) ? "." + x[1] : ".00"),
    exp = /^([0-9]+)(\d{3})/;
    while (exp.test(x1))
        x1 = x1.replace(exp, "$1" + "," + "$2");
    return x1 + x2;
}

alert("123123".toPrice()); //123,123.00
alert("123123,316".toPrice()); //123,123.32
alert("12,312,313.33213".toPrice()); //12,312,313.33
alert("123.312.321,32132".toPrice()); //123,312,321.32

主要部分是插入千个分隔符，可以这样做：

<script type="text/javascript">
  function ins1000Sep(val) {
    val = val.split(".");
    val[0] = val[0].split("").reverse().join("");
    val[0] = val[0].replace(/(\d{3})/g, "$1,");
    val[0] = val[0].split("").reverse().join("");
    val[0] = val[0].indexOf(",") == 0 ? val[0].substring(1) : val[0];
    return val.join(".");
  }

  function rem1000Sep(val) {
    return val.replace(/,/g, "");
  }

  function formatNum(val) {
    val = Math.round(val*100)/100;
    val = ("" + val).indexOf(".") > -1 ? val + "00" : val + ".00";
    var dec = val.indexOf(".");
    return dec == val.length-3 || dec == 0 ? val : val.substring(0, dec+3);
  }
</script>

<button onclick="alert(ins1000Sep(formatNum(12313231)));">

一种仅满足原始要求的极简方法：

function formatMoney(n) {
    return "$ " + (Math.round(n * 100) / 100).toLocaleString();
}

@丹尼尔·马格廖拉：你说得对。以上是一个仓促而不完整的实施。以下是正确的实施方式：

function formatMoney(n) {
    return "$ " + n.toLocaleString().split(".")[0] + "."
        + n.toFixed(2).split(".")[1];
}

Patrick热门答案的CoffeeScript：

Number::formatMoney = (decimalPlaces, decimalChar, thousandsChar) ->
  n = this
  c = decimalPlaces
  d = decimalChar
  t = thousandsChar
  c = (if isNaN(c = Math.abs(c)) then 2 else c)
  d = (if d is undefined then "." else d)
  t = (if t is undefined then "," else t)
  s = (if n < 0 then "-" else "")
  i = parseInt(n = Math.abs(+n or 0).toFixed(c)) + ""
  j = (if (j = i.length) > 3 then j % 3 else 0)
  s + (if j then i.substr(0, j) + t else "") + i.substr(j).replace(/(\d{3})(?=\d)/g, "$1" + t) + (if c then d + Math.abs(n - i).toFixed(c).slice(2) else "")

YUI代码库使用以下格式：

format: function(nData, oConfig) {
    oConfig = oConfig || {};

    if(!YAHOO.lang.isNumber(nData)) {
        nData *= 1;
    }

    if(YAHOO.lang.isNumber(nData)) {
        var sOutput = nData + "";
        var sDecimalSeparator = (oConfig.decimalSeparator) ? oConfig.decimalSeparator : ".";
        var nDotIndex;

        // Manage decimals
        if(YAHOO.lang.isNumber(oConfig.decimalPlaces)) {
            // Round to the correct decimal place
            var nDecimalPlaces = oConfig.decimalPlaces;
            var nDecimal = Math.pow(10, nDecimalPlaces);
            sOutput = Math.round(nData*nDecimal)/nDecimal + "";
            nDotIndex = sOutput.lastIndexOf(".");

            if(nDecimalPlaces > 0) {
                // Add the decimal separator
                if(nDotIndex < 0) {
                    sOutput += sDecimalSeparator;
                    nDotIndex = sOutput.length-1;
                }
                // Replace the "."
                else if(sDecimalSeparator !== "."){
                    sOutput = sOutput.replace(".",sDecimalSeparator);
                }
                // Add missing zeros
                while((sOutput.length - 1 - nDotIndex) < nDecimalPlaces) {
                    sOutput += "0";
                }
            }
        }

        // Add the thousands separator
        if(oConfig.thousandsSeparator) {
            var sThousandsSeparator = oConfig.thousandsSeparator;
            nDotIndex = sOutput.lastIndexOf(sDecimalSeparator);
            nDotIndex = (nDotIndex > -1) ? nDotIndex : sOutput.length;
            var sNewOutput = sOutput.substring(nDotIndex);
            var nCount = -1;
            for (var i=nDotIndex; i>0; i--) {
                nCount++;
                if ((nCount%3 === 0) && (i !== nDotIndex)) {
                    sNewOutput = sThousandsSeparator + sNewOutput;
                }
                sNewOutput = sOutput.charAt(i-1) + sNewOutput;
            }
            sOutput = sNewOutput;
        }

        // Prepend prefix
        sOutput = (oConfig.prefix) ? oConfig.prefix + sOutput : sOutput;

        // Append suffix
        sOutput = (oConfig.suffix) ? sOutput + oConfig.suffix : sOutput;

        return sOutput;
    }
    // Still not a number. Just return it unaltered
    else {
        return nData;
    }
}

它需要编辑，因为YUI库是可配置的，比如用“.”替换oConfig.decimalSeparator。
