I think I've solved a problem that I had posted back in September.
Here's a recap:
======================
I need to grab a dollar amount from a text field in a MySQL db that
can contain more information than just the price. Here are 4 examples
of what could be in that field:
48,(min)
2.66
24,(min)
10.50
4,(min)
104.82
98.56
If there is more info in that field than just the price (as in the
first 3 examples), the price is always on the 2nd line.
======================
The following code works with the tests I've given it so far, but I
just want to double check before I go live with it:
...
if ($position = strpos($item['unitprice'], ')') )
$price = "$" . number_format(substr($item['unitprice'], $position +
1),2);
else
$price = "$" . number_format($item['unitprice'],2);
...
Legend:
$item['unitprice'] is coming from a MySQL statement
I'm grabbing the position of the right parentheses and adding 1 to
it. Then the substr grabs everything from that point to the end of
the string, correct? If there isn't a ")" in the field, then the else
statement should be performed.
Can anyone see any errors in my code? Would there be a better way to
write this?
Thanks again,
Frank
