[pk_stringtointeger]

Description

Tag converts a formatted number such as $100,000 back to an integer (e.g. 100000).
Note the difference with Bil's tag [lp_string_getNumeric] - my tag returns the integer value, ignoring digits after a period:
[pk_stringtointeger] $100,000.45 -> 100000 [lp_string_getNumeric] $100,000.45 -> 10000045

Sample Usage

[pk_stringtointeger:'$100,000.45']
-> 100000

[pk_stringtointeger:'+1-234 yada 23-65/01']
-> 1234236501

[pk_stringtointeger:'+1-234 yada. 23-65/01']
-> 1234
