rounding to 2 decimal places (dollars and cents)

[mperrah]

I am building a shopping cart http://www.mperrah.com/tulip/archive/index.html
(Click the images to get to the cart.)
I multiply the sales tax and get 3 or more decimals places for the result.
Is there a way to round up to 2 decimals
ie ($123.46)
not ($123.456...)
I can send the .fla file to anyone interested

Here's a nice little function that rounds to any number of decimal places.

private function roundDec(numIn:Number, decimalPlaces:int):Number {
var nExp:int = Math.pow(10,decimalPlaces) ;
var nRetVal:Number = Math.round(numIn * nExp) / nExp
return nRetVal;
}

Here is very simple code to round up the decimal as below:

var cost = 5.2382565
var roundCost = cost.toFixed(2)
trace(roundCost);
// Here you will get the output: 5.24

You change the toFixed value as per you need instead of 2.

I hope it will resolve your problem if you have any other issue please let me know.
