Welcome,
Please note that using bc function variables will be of type string. So
a code working with numeric values like:
$a = 1;
if( $a )
{
...
}
it's ok but with bc functions:
$a = 14.5;
$b = -14.5;
$c = bcadd( $a, $b );
if( $c )
{
...
}
will not work as expected ( if( "0" ) is interpreted like a string that
is not null and so condition is interpreted as true.

When working with floats with php/mysql I had problems too...
When summing amounts I had errors so my solution was using decimal
(20, 10) type into mysql for storing amounts and when using sums in
php I used bc functions. This way u get exact calculations (depending
on bcscale() parameter.
Thanks Andy sounds great.
Changed DB to decimal 10.2
Tried it, but using bcadd i get a value of 0.00.
If you have som sample code lying around somewhere that would be
great, or do you know what happened?

doesnt work.
