I got the same problem.

As a workaround i added an additional option to the format-function, which 
indicates,
that the containing value is to be interpreted as a javascript number-value.

        if(options.raw != true) {
            // now we need to convert it into a number
            while (text.indexOf(group)>-1)
                   text = text.replace(group,'');
            var number = new Number(text.replace(dec,".").replace(neg,"-"));
        } else {
            var number = new Number(text);
        }

but this is truely a workaround. I would have expected that if the value is a 
valid
number, no textreplacements will be made.

Your right, shouldn't really be parsing the number before formatting, if you 
want to do 
that then of course you can via 2 separate calls (parse -> js num -> formatted 
text).

I'm going to change things to try and separate parsing and formatting more, for 
the 
next version.

Fixed for 1.2

now works fine via

$('span').formatNumber({format:"#,##0.00 EUR", locale:"de"});
