Uh, isn't Math.floor supposed to round down? [and Math.ceil() rounds up?]
If so, it's working as advertised here.

I'm wandering if we should continue to use Math.floor() and Math.ceil()
since they are unreliable.
Code:
var a = 2.999999999999999;
trace(parseInt(a.toString()));
trace(Math.floor(a));
trace(a);
output:
3
2
3
Would using methods using parseInt to simulate Math.floor() and
Math.ceil() be safer?
Example
public static function floor(_nValue:Number):Number
{
return parseInt(_nValue.toString());
}
public static function ceil(_nValue:Number):Number
{
return parseInt(_nValue.toString()) + 1;
}
