If you want to change a string to a number, first make sure there are only the characters 0-9 in the string. What I always do is simply multiplying the string by 1.
var c = '1234'; d = c * 1; Since multiplying assumes numbers, JavaScript makes the string a number, if possible. If that isn't possible, the result is NaN. -Rob > On 20020703.1154, Benjamin Huot said ... > > I'm trying to write some accounting scripts with JavaScript, but it is just >appending one number onto the other > number instead of adding them.
