Hi all,
Fortunately I keep forward for my old email addresses. The problem here
is the currency symbol for Croatian Kuna. There are two symbols in usage
now - one local 'Kn', and the international one 'HRK'. If you use the
local symbol, it should go after the value, like in:
123.45 Kn
but for the international one, the usage should be:
HRK 123.45
Since the locale itself uses 'Kn' as the currency symbol, right usage
should be _after_ the value.
Regards,
