# Tag
[JSP Standard Tag Library](#)
The tag is used to parse numbers, percentages, and currencies.
### Syntax Format
<fmt:parseNumber value="" type="" pattern="" parseLocale="" integerOnly="" var="" scope=""/>
### Attributes
The tag has the following attributes:
| **Attribute** | **Description** | **Required** | **Default Value** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| value | The number to be parsed | No | Body |
| type | NUMBER, CURRENCY, or PERCENT | No | number |
| parseLocale | The locale used when parsing the number | No | Default locale |
| integerOnly | Whether to parse only integer values (true) or floating-point numbers (false) | No | false |
| pattern | Custom parsing pattern | No | None |
| timeZone | The time zone for displaying the date | No | Default time zone |
| var | Variable to store the parsed number | No | Print to page |
| scope | Scope of the var attribute | No | page |
The pattern attribute has the same function as the pattern in the tag. During parsing, the pattern attribute tells the parser the expected format.
