I want to validate a number to so that they can only input $2.00, 5.00,
7.00, 50.00 etc... I don't wan them to be able to put cents on the
amount. It can either either be 2 or 2.00 Any ideas on how I can do
this? Thanks 9 5821 bd***@hotmail.c om wrote: I want to validate a number to so that they can only input $2.00, 5.00, 7.00, 50.00 etc... I don't wan them to be able to put cents on the amount. It can either either be 2 or 2.00 Any ideas on how I can do this? Thanks
Math.round(Num) +".00"
But what do you do with $2.05 or $2.50?

-
Or
Math.floor(num) - to ignore anything after the decimal.
the $ make it NaN

Neither of which limits the input to all digits, which is what the OP
wanted.
if (+fieldRef.valu e = parseInt(fieldR ef.value,10))
But a Regular Expression might be preferable.

Yeah not sure how I really wanted to handle it, I figured regular
expressions may the way to go. I really didn't want them to be able to
type anything other than a say 2.00 or 2 or 4.00 or 5 etc... I wanted
to check it on keyup to make sure it meets the requirement. I'll mess
with with some of these. Let me know if you that clears up any. Thanks!
Looks like I can make randy's parses anything to the right of the
decimal. Is there I can just check to see if they have any cents and
alert them to fix it? Say if they have 2.25 then alert("Sorry has to
be in dollar amounts") I could just parse it like randy has but I'd
like to alert them that it isn't in the proper format and let them fix
it. Thanks
Got it I think:
var NumericRegExp =/^\d+(\.[0]{0,2})?$/;
var regex = new RegExp(NumericR egExp);
if (!regex.test(a) ){
alert(a + " is not a valid for this field.");
return false;
}
else {
alert("Ok");

Just a thought: ask for whole dollars and check that the input is all
digits (i.e. an integer), e.g.
<label for="Amount">Pl ease enter whole dollars: <b r>
<b>$</b><input type="text" id="Amount" onkeyup="
var msg = '';
if(!/^\d*$/.test(this.valu e)) msg = 'Whole $ only please!';
document.getEle mentById('msg') .innerHTML = msg;
}
"></label><div id="msg"></div>

That above allows 0 0. 0.00 the middle of which is poor practice and
not included in what you asked for. Decimal points, being little,
should always be guarded by at least one digit in each side.
OK = /^\d+(\.00)?$/.test(a)
I prefer the structure
OK = <test>
if (!OK) <complain>
return OK

What exactly is the sense of using a "const" modifier before a function
declaration? Actually, you can use it in three places. For instance, take a
look at the following function declaration (from the introductory book

{
Money();

I am contemplating getting into Python, which is used by engineers I

"no variable or argument declarations are necessary."
Surely that means that if I misspell a variable name, my program will

If you don't declare variables, you can inadvertently re-use an
variable used in an enclosing context when you don't intend to, or

Howdy,
In my GridView i have some bound columns displaying currency. I have
DataFormatString="${0:C2}" in one of the columns but the value being
displayed is $35 . If the price has cents, then it will display the cents,
like $35.3 or $35.55, but where there's no cents, it just displays $35.
Shouldn't this override any datatypes from the datasource. Just to cofirm I
