I have two number fields feeding into a total number field with a calculation and for some reason the snippet suggested here <a href="http://gravitywiz.com/2012/05/24/format-field-as-currency/" rel="nofollow">http://gravitywiz.com/2012/05/24/format-field-as-currency/</a> breaks two of number fields the total one displays fine. Here's a link to the test form I've been working on <a href="http://www.christianlegacy.org.uk/pdf-form-test/" rel="nofollow">http://www.christianlegacy.org.uk/pdf-form-test/</a> . I've also noticed that the two non functioning numbers fields are also not displaying decimal points number format. Is there any reason for this? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-171055 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 06:54:12 +0000 Chris Hajer 171055@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Please email <a href="mailto:chris@rocketgenius.com">chris@rocketgenius.com</a> - there is no PM function here. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-169734 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 07:49:36 +0000 cphillips.ia 169734@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is there a way to email or PM the link / info to you? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-169722 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 07:43:54 +0000 Chris Hajer 169722@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@cphillips.ia, please include a link to the page on your site where we can see the form, and let us know which fields you're trying to format as currency. David's solution was meant to work in general cases, but you may need something more specific, but utilizing the same approach. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-167582 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 08:21:39 +0000 cphillips.ia 167582@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have the same issue. The "breaking" in <a href="http://gravitywiz.com/2012/05/24/format-field-as-currency/" rel="nofollow">http://gravitywiz.com/2012/05/24/format-field-as-currency/</a> references some single quotes the were not escaped, but that aside, this did not actually solve the problem. The solution David highlights in his article only works with text fields, not number fields... We need several fields that do calculation to display results as currency. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-142457 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 09:05:26 +0000 Chris Hajer 142457@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>"Unfortunately the link you sent keeps breaking my form."</p> <p>Can you explain what you mean?</p> <p>To force a field to be 2 decimal places, and still be a number, you can use different jQuery, like this <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/a/478266" rel="nofollow">http://stackoverflow.com/a/478266</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/numbers-field-questions#post-142014 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:03:27 +0000 Nick 142014@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Duh, I should have thought about conditionally displaying the math fields, that's an easy one.

Two questions:</p> <p>1. Can I make the calculation fields empty until the first field is filled in? As it is, they show weird numbers based on the math that are completely irrelevant.</p> <p>2. Since the numbers represent money, is there a way to force two decimal places even when the hundredths place is zero? I want 2.50 to show as 2.50, not 2.5.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
