In PHP you could write code to do it. $float = 4.00; $text = (string)$float; if (preg_match("/\d+\.0+$/", $text)) { list($final) = (int)split("\.", $text); } elseif { ... blah blah blah } code is untested, I may have written it wrong. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Beckman Internet Guy beckman@purplecow.com http://www.purplecow.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
