Note Submitter: sam at bigroomstudios dot com ---- Here's a way to get around jolyon's 79.99 problem (below). If you want to take a float value representing a price and drop off any fractions of a cent, use this: <?php function round_to_penny($amount){ $string = (string)($amount * 100); $string_array = split("\.", $string); $int = (int)$string_array[0]; $return = $int / 100; return $return; } print( round_to_penny(79.99999) ); //result: 79.99 ?> Probably not super efficient, but get's the job done if you've already invested in using float values. Cheers, Sam
