Perhaps the compiler bundled with TC 6 is more forgiving. > Tomcat complains that he cannot convert String '-' to a > java.lang.Double. I assume that table_data.package_price is a double (or Double). You are adding the result of the ternary operator. The second parameter to the ternary operator is a double value (0.0). The third one is a String. Just wrap road_assistance_2year like this: ${ table_data.package_price + ( road_assistance_2year == '-' ? 0.0 : Double.doubleValue(road_assistance_2year) ) + ... If you are using localized double values, you'll obviously have to use another conversion mechanism -- or perhaps you prefer to use something from your webapp framework of whatever. The point is the same: you can't add a String to a double. You need compatible data types, so just convert. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGuIMZ9CaO5/Lv0PARAqeJAJ97/Xn18Lq8uCgYG4RFzHd8sZFVLACbBWFV MBsXVhQabw+53yQT+x81oEM= =4Pk5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
