    Default PHP Help. Returning a value to 2 decimal places.

    Ok.

    Im coding a script and after you order it adds on 17.5% VAT. But this causes problems and gives out a number. Something like $29.36325 when it should be $29.36

    PHP Code:
    $vat 24.99 100 17.5;

    $gt $vat 24.99;

    echo (
    "You ordered $_POST[iname]. The price is $24.99 (excluding VAT).  The grand total is $$gt "); 
    Thats the code im using. If anybody could help me it'd be great. I tried a few codes but nothing so far has worked.

    Display it as a image for some reason then add into it imagechar so it limits the text to about 20 so it misses out the other bits.

    it should end up like:

    PHP Code:
    $vat 24.99 100 17.5;

    $gt $vat 24.99;

    echo (
    "You ordered $_POST[iname]. The price is $24.99 (excluding VAT).  The grand total is $");
    echo 
    round ($gt2);

    Thanks all. I tried the round function but it didn't work. If anyone needs this use the money_format() function.
