Re: Division in Cold Fusion?
The correct way is: You almost had it right - just had the slash turned around.

RE: Division in Cold Fusion?
Just like you did but you're using the wrong slash it should be. BTW you also don't need #'s in set's unless the variable name is in ""'s.

Re: Division in Cold Fusion?
The backwards slash will divide and truncate the remainder, ie: it is an INTEGER divide. Use the normal / if you want to just divide.

Thanks for all the help with this one. One final question would be, is there a way to round the results of this to say 2 decimal places?

I'm sure there's a nifty function that does exactly that for you - but without looking in the manual you could always do this: At 03:06 PM 8/23/00 -0400, Peter Benoit wrote: >Thanks for all the help with this one.
