try this: $a=2\.54; $b="2\.54" the forward slashes show that "." is not special.

But I think it's some locale thingie. You might have ',' as the decimal separator. Try setting the locale correctly: setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "en_US"); or something like that. Or you ',' as the separator. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-03-19 06:11:28] jan dot wurl at prosales-europe dot com I try to set a variable with a double value: $a=2.54; $b="2.54" but PHP ignores everything after the point echo ($a*100) results 200 echo ($b*100) results 200 I tried everything, i thought it might be work (like setting datatype before set the value, ...), but nothing worked.
