> JavaScript has an annoying habit of treating numbers as strings. Well, actually, this has nothing to do with JavaScript, and everything to do with where your values come from.
Within an HTML form, fields contain string values. If you create a variable in JavaScript, the value of that variable will determine the datatype. > I usually just divide appropriate values by one to force them > to numbers (eg: hrRate/1), and it should then add them correctly. JavaScript provides parseInt() and parseFloat() to cast values to integers and floats, respectively.
