Hi

how do I use decimal points eg 17.5 x 10?

I am using this element to calculate 2 dropdown values:

onclick=\"document.getElementById('total').value = parseInt(document.getElementById('Field1').value) * parseInt(document.getElementById('Field2').value);\"


at the moment it ignores the decimal point and returns 170 instead of 175

any suggestions?

thanks

Hello,

Instead of parseInt you should use parseFloat. parseInt() is a javascript function that forces an integer out of any value. You need a floating point value.
