Add code for decimal places

[rhodarose]

Good day!

I want to know where I can put this code :

 number_format($num), 2; 

I have this code:

echo mysql_result ($result,$ctr,"inputqty"); 

I want the output if this code is in 2 decimal places for example the output in this code is: 1.9856211 I want to become is like this 1.99

I hope somebody can help me...thank you..

What's the output of echo mysql_result ($result,$ctr,"inputqty"); ? If it's a number and a number only and is always less than 1,000 (or if it's 1,000 or more, a comma's OK) then:

echo number_format(mysql_result ($result,$ctr,"inputqty"), 2); 

But PHP sometimes doesn't like nesting, so to be on the safe side:

$num = mysql_result ($result,$ctr,"inputqty");
echo number_format($num, 2);
