tooltip displays without leading $1

[geerlingguy]

It seems that if I have a tickFormatter defined like so:

tickFormatter: function(val, axis) {
  return '$' + val.toLocaleString();
},

And the number (val) that's passed in begins with a 1 (e.g. 17527 or 123), then the leading $1 in the formatted tick is removed, resulting in something like 7,527 or 23 instead of $17,527 or $123...

I was scratching my head over this, as the ticks display correctly on the left side of the flot graph, but they display incorrectly in the hovered tooltip. For tooltipOpts, I have content: "%y".

I believe the good solution is to make sure that $n never gets interpreted as a regex special value but as a dollar sign and a number, escaping dollars with a backslash should probably do the trick doesn't it ?
