I'll give it a try.

Weird how the solution posted in the tal=klists way back was acting so erratically.

I even did a total reboot/restart of webdn=a 'cause sometimes windows like to act goofy on its own.

If any of= your values are blank they will be formatted to 0.00 so that your math wil=l then be able to calculate without error.

Chicag=o stopped its lakefront fireworks extravaganza years ago.... ;(

A somewhat simple [math] addition snippet is driving me nut=s

I've seen this referenced one way or another in the talkli=sts.....

=3D=3D==3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Another trick for dealing with fields that may be =blank is to prepend
th=em with a 0 within the math context:[math][_itemamount]+[_postage]+0[_donation][/math]
=3D=3D=3D==3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

Doesn't behave as mentioned= that way for me.....

<=div class=3D"yiv5574971491" style=3D"font-size: 13px; font-family: Helvetic=aNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; fon=t-style: normal; background-color: transparent;">I'm ultimately snatching s=ome price values and doing simple addition:

[text show=3DF]totalcharges=3D[math][ad_listing_price]+[promo_topspot_price]+=[photo_update_price][/math][/text]

(there will be many more fields, but for now= I'm just dealing with those 3)

If any one of those 3 price =variables is not passed from the form the addition will not happen.
If all 3 are passed they total up just fine=.
There might =be as many as 13 fields getting totaled up when complete.
There might be just one price to pa=ss along, maybe 2 or 3 to add up, maybe 4 or 5 etc

Adding a "0" =like mentioned in the talklist entries I've found does nothing.

I've used [listvariables] and [formvariables] to be sure those 3 prices= are being passed around OK and they are....

Something simple= I'm missing or flying over my head?
<=span class=3D"yiv5574971491" style=3D"font-size:10pt;">
<=/span>
Adding [hideif]s into that [ma=th] part is an option, but looking for a simpler solution.

I'm =running version 6.2 on Windows Server2008

Searching the ne=wer talklist gets a little clunky at times using that form.....
