I notice that when I try to relist an 'inactive ad', from within the myads section, the 'postad.aspx?relistxx' page is diplayed with the original price but, to 4 decimal places and i would like only 2 decimal places. Does anyone know how to change this? I am using the final version of classifieds.

Thanks

Hi,

       If you want to do it in javascript,then use

                     var subTotal=0.0;subTotal.toFixed(2);

   for C#,

           Convert.ToDouble(txtAmount.Text.Trim()).ToString("F");

where txtAmount contains the value

Hi  Rama,

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I am such a newbie I have no idea where to place that line of code (C#) so if you are familiar with the classified kit could you help me further with that. And, do you know if the code wold be similar in VB, as that is my preferred code. Thanks.

Hey Phil,

It's really easy.

Just open your code behind page for postad.
In my case it's PostAd.aspx.vb

Scroll down towards the bottom and you will find a sub called LoadPreviousAd
And you'll probably see this PriceTextBox.Text = ad.Price

Change it to this:

PriceTextBox.Text = String.Format("{0:f2}", ad.Price)

Note the 2, it represents after the decimal.
And the f tells it it's a number so over 1000 it adds a comma 1,000
If you change the f to a c it will use a comma, and add your set currency, probably $.

Good Luck

Daniel

Thanks Daniel,

You came to my rescue again, thanks.

 Hi again Daniel,

Can I try and tap into your knowledge on this little bug querie? I posted it in the general bugs section but had no response from anyone yet and I've searched the forums to the point of giving up. The link to the post is:
