[PHP] Rounding issue
I need to know if there is a work around for the following scenerio... $x = 4.5012412; echo round($x, 2); // results in 4.5 --- however I want 4.50! I want 2 decimal places! Is there a way to keep the zero from being dropped? I have not been able to get the zero to stay there ... I realize this is the interpreters problem but I need the zero. thanks in advance -- Kevin Ison Charlotte, NC -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
