Interesting issue... I am extracting a price from an XML feed for insertion into our local data. The price is returned as a simple float value which I can output to screen just fine. Unfortunately when I insert the info into the database it gets a little messed up.
Here are 5 inserted values from a small test run... 19.989999999999998 15.99 9.9900000000000002 14.99 39.990000000000002 As you can see, 2 of them inserted fine but 3 of them got inserted with a 0.000000000000002 margin of error. Does anyone know why this is happening? FYI: This is going into MSSQL but I get the same problems with MySQL so I don't think it is a DB issue. -- Jay -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
