Hi Mattias,

I have almost finished my evil new-years-eve project, but I have run into the last problem of them all. You see - I have a variable that usually produces a number like this: 4.17349837364732. I want this to be 4.17 and set it into a MySQL database. How can this be done? I currently have the field in question set to TINYINT, but that does not seem to work. Can anyone please help me with this little problem?Use the round function in PHP: http://www.php.net/manual/function.round.php Or even better, use the MySQL datatype FLOAT(4,2) which will automatically convert inserted numbers to two decimal places.
