[xsl] Currency Localization

["Tim Watts" <timw at 3d3 dot com>]

G'day,

Could you add the details for your currency, or currencies which you know,
to the list below?

As I thought this would be a useful resource for many people that are on
this list for localization.

I am trying to compile an XML document which contains numbering and currency
information for world currencies, and have been unable to find the
information I require after two days of searching. (There is no ISO spec
which I could find with all the information I wanted)

I thought I would ask for the XSL List for assistance in completing it.
Anyone who wishs to use the resource could then have a copy.

I have included the XML I have begun below, and would value your input (sent
to timw@3d3.com as to not clog the list with multiple posting about this)

The resources I would like are ;

The number of decimal places
the decimal seperator
the grouping separator (for thousands etc.)
the placement of the currency symbol (before or after the numeric value.)

eg
$ 1,045.50    (2 decimal places, '.' decimal separator, ',' grouping
separator, placement 'before')
67.000,00 DM  (2 decimal places, ',' decimal separator, '.' grouping
separator, placement 'after')
¥ 45,000      (0 decimal places, '.' decimal separator, ',' grouping
separator, placement 'before')
S 5.890,99    (2 decimal places, '.' decimal separator, ',' grouping
separator, placement 'before')
£ 6,798.00    (2 decimal places, '.' decimal separator, ',' grouping
separator, placement 'before')

There is already the details of the iso codes and the currency symbol's
(although corrections are welcome)

Thank you for all your help,

Tim Watts :)
