Get the formated value back to original

[Office]

Hello,

I set my culture in Romanian input

kendo.culture('ro');

Then, i set the value of a textbox like this

$("#valueInput").val(kendo.toString(100000.25, "c"));  // creates "100.000,25 lei"

How can i get the formated value back to original, but keeping the culture format? (without using the .kendoNumericTextBox plugin)

For example, "100.000,25 lei"  changes to "100000,25"  (note that decimals separator is a coma , )

Thank you

Hello Mark,

 
Here is a quote of the answer in the support ticket open on the same matter:

Thank you for contacting us. In order to achieve your goal you will need first to parse the string and create Number from it. Then you can format it in the way you need:

Copy Code

//format to currency

var formatted = kendo.toString(100000.25, "c");

 

//get Number object

var currency = kendo.parseFloat(formatted );

 

//re-format the number

var newFomarttedNumber = kendo.toString(currency, "n");
