Re: MySQL and Numbers
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2005
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 62817
interpreted = N
texte = I also have a field named "price" in a table. The field is spec'ed as FLOAT= , and a price of $20.00 would show in the table as just 20. When I pull the price from the table, it displays some weird number like 1074987008. I trie= d the format code below, but it doesn't show anything when I insert [myprice] into the [founditems] loop. Any ideas? On 8/8/05 7:42 AM, "nitai@computeroil.com"
