Answered my own question... rounding using the "round" function to two
decimal places did the trick:
<?
$contract_amount = 9961.00;
$bill1 = .95;
$bill2 = .05;
$billable_this_month += ($contract_amount * $bill1);
$paid_to_date += ($contract_amount * $bill2);
$paid_to_date = round($paid_to_date,2);
$billable_this_month = round($billable_this_month,2);
$contract_amount = round($contract_amount,2);
echo "conditional: if(($paid_to_date + $billable_this_month) >=
$contract_amount)\n<br>\n";
if(($paid_to_date + $billable_this_month) >= $contract_amount) {
echo "true";
}
else {
echo "false";
}
?>
now outputs "true". :-)
