[snip] I have a price field that sometimes contains entries like this: 250,(min) 5.32 How can I pull just the price ($5.32 in this example) from this field to display on a web page? Is there a RIGHT function in PHP? When I search the PHP site, I'm being told there isn't one. Here's the code I've been using: [/snip] substr will work from right to left. If your data is in a variable do this; echo substr($myData, -5); Why -5? To account for 2 decimal places, the decimal and up to 99 dollars? http://www.php.net/substr
