If you want to be able to change the currency dynamically,
you can
create a little jquery script that will modify the content
of your
page. Put the original value in hidden fields with a class
"original-value" and append the converted value to
the hidden field:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('input.original-value').each(function() {
$(this).after(($(this).val() * exchange_rate) +
'euros');
});
});
This is just a basic idea, but a script that loads the
currency and
the associated exchange rate from a form, as well as
creating correct
html code should not be much longer.
You would still need some server-side conversion for users
who don't
have javascript enabled, but depending on your needs this
might not be
an issue.
