Answer 1

I think Google could have answered your question ;-) See http://blog.chapagain.com.np/magento-format-price/.

You can do it with

$formattedPrice = Mage::helper('core')->currency($finalPrice, true, false);

Answer 2

For formatting the price in another currency than the current one:

Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency('EUR')->toCurrency($price);

Answer 3

try this:

<?php echo Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency(Mage::app()->getStore()->getCurrentCurrencyCode())->getSymbol(); ?>

Answer 4

By this code for formating price in product list

echo Mage::helper('core')->currency($_product->getPrice());

This is a charming answer. Work well on any currency which is selected for store.

$formattedPrice = Mage::helper('core')->currency($finalPrice, true, false);

Answer 6

Unformatted and formatted:

$price = $product->getPrice();
$formatted = Mage::helper('core')->currency($price, true, false);

Or use:
