Here’s a jQuery plugin that transforms a number into a human readable format. This plugin formats a number like 23454321234 into 23.454.321.234 . You can use different delimiters like the comma, dot, space or anything you specify in the plugin.

Here are some examples of how to call the plugin:

<div id="number1">1234567123672</div>
<div id="number2">12345622237123672</div>

a)

$("#number1").prettynumber();
//it would output 1.234.567.123.672


b)

$("#number2").prettynumber({
delimiter : ','
});
//it would output 12,345,622,237,123,672
