In the previous version of PHP we were using, I could pass a string to number_format and it would just change it to a 0 without complaint. With 5.3.6 I get an "expects double" error. I don't suppose there's a way to make it work like it used to??? I'm dealing with really old code that wasn't very well structured. Thanks!

Could you check it before formatting? Or if the data is coming from the db, force it to 0 if null? $var = (is_double($number_var)) ? $number_var : 0;

Or possibly: <?php number_format( (float)$your_input, 2 ); ?> Cheers, Rob.
