# |unlocalize

forces one value to stay machine-readable.

## Documentation

Formats one value without locale-aware formatting.

### Template

```django
{% load l10n %}
<input type="number" value="{{ price|unlocalize }}">
```

This is the one that saves you: a number in a form field, a data attribute, or a JavaScript literal has to keep its dot decimal separator, and a locale that uses a comma would otherwise break it.
