Hello François.

The problem is due to a wrong configuration. When you install fr_BE, the decimal separator is not setted to the country's standard, it is configured as the english convention. In the english convention, the comma can be used is used as a thousand separator. For example we will write "15,423.85". The behavior of the web client is simply to ignore the thousand separator. So the behavior of the web client is completely normal according to its configuration. I also tested by customizing the thousand and decimal separators and that worked fine.

We could consider this incorrect default configuration as a openobject-server issue. I asked to odo and he said it is known since a long time and that he has no desire to try to solve it. Your best option is to manually configure the your language, which should not be very difficult.
