If there's only one number after the decimal place in a value - add a 0 after it.

How would I go about pulling something like this off?

[g-force2k2]

try the round function.

PHP Code:

$newnumber = round ( $number, 2 ) ;

The number is already rounded to two decimal places before being store in the database. I'll try using round again before it is displayed, I don't think it'd work though.

EDIT: No dice.

It could perhaps be the column field type that's causing the problem.

Well, it doesn't work when I try it before displaying the number.

The column type is varchar.

There could perhaps be an easier way then I know of, but instead I just made a quick fucntion:

PHP Code:

function twopl_round ( $number )
{
    $numbits = explode ( ".", $number ) ;
    if ( strlen ( $numbits[1] ) < 2 ) :
        $number.= '0' ;
    endif ;
    return $number ;
} 


Just call the function by:

PHP Code:

$number = twopl_round ( $number ) ;

i know you've got the way you want it already, but i may say, there is already a function in php which does that afaik

PHP Code:

$number = number_format($number, 2, '.', ''); 


[Link14716]

That shows how much I use number_format

Thank you, Xenon and g-force2k2 for the help.
