Answer 1

You can se the NumberFormatter plug-in from JQuery.

Here's an example of how you'd use this plugin.

$("#salary").blur(function(){
    $(this).format({format:"#,###.00", locale:"de"});
});

Answer 2

check this function...

var number = 1000; // int or float or string
var format = '#,###.0'; // you can put any format that you want... only string

function ConvertNumber(number, format){
    var tail=format.lastIndexOf('.');number=number.toString();
    tail=tail>-1?format.substr(tail):'';
    if(tail.length>0){if(tail.charAt(1)=='#'){
        tail=number.substr(number.lastIndexOf('.'),tail.length);
    }}
    number=number.replace(/\..*|[^0-9]/g,'').split('');
    format=format.replace(/\..*/g,'').split('');
    for(var i=format.length-1;i>-1;i--){
        if(format[i]=='#'){format[i]=number.pop()}
    }
    return number.join('')+format.join('')+tail;
}

// Examples
// ConvertNumber(1234,'#,###') === 1,234
// ConvertNumber(1234,'#,###.00') === 1,234.00
// ConvertNumber(1234,',###.00') === 1,234.00
// ConvertNumber(1234.4575,',###.##') === 1,234.45
// ConvertNumber(1234567890.4575,',###,###,###.##') === 1,234,567,890.45
// ConvertNumber(123.4575,',#,#.##') === 1,2,3.45
// ConvertNumber(123456.4575,'-#-#.##') === 1234-5-6.45
// ConvertNumber(1234567.4575,' ## ###.##') === 12 34 567.45

hope this function will be very helpful for you and them who have the same problem... best of luck...
