ID: 10537 Updated by: derick Reported By: mguertin@macdiscussion.com Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: *Function Specific PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: Comments: This is not a bug, after the first number_format in the second piece, $value is a string.

Here's the snippet: $value = 1234; $total = $value + $value; print number_format($value,2) . " + " . number_format($value,2) . " = " . number_format($total,2); print "<BR><BR>"; $value = number_format($value,2); $total = $value + $value; print $value . " + " . $value . " = " . $total; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
