HTML::FormFu::Filter::FormatNumber - Convert a formatted number from a known locale

This filter simply does the opposite of HTML::FormFu::Deflator::FormatNumber. It removes all thousands separators and decimal points and returns the raw number which can be handled by perl. See unformat_number in Number::Format for more details.

    locale: de_DE
    elements:
      - type: Text
        name: number
        filters:
          - type: FormatNumber

    # An input value like "13.233.444,22" will be transformed to "13233444.22"
    # Same for "13233444,22"

If no locale is found, the server's locale will be used.

This method is a special 'inherited accessor', which means it can be set on the form, a enclosing block element, the field, or this filter. When the value is read, if no value is defined it automatically traverses the element's hierarchy of parents, through any block elements and up to the form, searching for a defined value.
