Hello George, Try something like this: $var = '25.5'; $var = sprintf("%.2f", $var); echo $var; GP> Hi, GP> I want to be able to display the results of some calculations as currency GP> such as £25.50, but round($var,2) produces £25.5. GP> I've tried writing my own function but that just fouled up the calculation. GP> Any tips or suggestions?
