--- Begin Message ---Its always better to use Float object while handling price related fields... Regards Kathir.________________________________ From: Murray Collingwood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 9/9/2005 12:44 PM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: A nice easy question Hi all I put a price field (float) in a form (textbox) but had some trouble parsing the text using the DemicalFormat class (it doesn't seem to like the 'float' type). So I went through changing my field to 'int' but now of course I can only store whole dollar amounts. To save me lots of time, should I: a) use long b) use double c) go back to float and fix my parsing d) use int and store the value as cents (rather than dollars) (n*100 and n/100) Kind regards mc FOCUS Computing Mob: 0415 24 26 24 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.focus-computing.com.au -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
