PHP show money_format without currency text

Question

In PHP, is it possible to use money_format to display money without showing the currency or at least showing it in an abbreviated form?

Currently, I use:

$money = "1234.56";
setlocale("LC_ALL", "de_DE");
$money = money_format("%n", $money);

Thanks, is there also a flag to use € instead of EUR?? – Frank Vilea Jul 05 '11 at 18:33
`$money = money_format("€ %!n", $money);` works in my environments. Depends on server configuration unfortunately. – Chris Pillen Feb 18 '15 at 21:18
