No, I want it to go to float(0), so minus the minus. "-0" doesn't exist in math, as far as I know. Probably a precision thing.
Ok, then try abs() first then. -- Richard Heyes +44 (0)844 801 1072 http://www.websupportsolutions.co.uk Knowledge Base and HelpDesk software that can cut the cost of online support -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
    Richard (Heyes) is right.
    <?php echo var_dump(abs(round(-0.26)))."\n"; ?>
    Tested on 5.0.4 and 5.2.3.
Think this through before you respond...

Try this <?php var_dump( round(-0.26) ); var_dump( abs( round(-0.26) ) ); var_dump( round(-1.26) ); var_dump( abs( round(-1.26) ) ); ?> does this give you the desired results? What if I expected -1 for the last answer? -- Jim Lucas "Some men are born to greatness, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them."
