Have you tried using the static function Double.parseDouble in package
java.lang.* The statement "double B = request.getParameter("txt1");"
shouldn't even compile. try changing it to
"Double.parseDouble(request.getParameter("txt1"));"
See how that works

Hi,
I have a small problem in using datatype. In a javabean, I am getting
a value "A" from pl/sql procedure and am comparing it with a value "B"
entered in a textbox , that is "B" should be greater than or equal to "A". I
have declared "B" as double in the bean, as i need to use a decimal value
like 1234578899.12345678 .
double B = request.getParameter("txt1");
Eventhough if i give value bigger than A, it is giving the value as low. If
i get less value for "A" and if i give bigger value than that for "B", it
works. I feel that, the value is getting truncated while getting the
parameter from the form .
What datatype can i use, so that even if i use big values, it
should compare?
Thanks in advance,
Leena
