float: use of comma's versus dots: 12,2 or 12.2

I have a webform that inserts product data in an sql database.
The price field is of the type "float".
On my web form, if I insert for example 12,2 in the price field => OK
But if I insert 12.2 I get an error.

Now the problem is that if I use the decimal-key (=dot) on my numeric path,
it inserts a "." instead of a ","
So I have to use the comma from outside the numeric path.

I have several computers, and all do the same.
I'm from belgium and in belgium, we use a comma as separator.

The weird thing is that if I for example open MS Excel and insert a number
with decimal , than the decimal separtor is inserted as a comma ",".

Hope someone can help me.

Do you use ADO.NET Parameters?

I've been thinking about float-ing a span versus float-ing a div, and the same for absolute positioning. When what is floated or positioned is a short chunk of text, I don't see any _visual_ difference between the two. What I want to do is float (or position) a revision date at the right margin of a line that also has some text left justified. I tried earlier to do this and failed utterly in MSIE 4. But I was using span not div, and...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
