Hi,

I've got two problems really. First, I have a user enter a value (mileage), then I have the session calculate the epxense (mileageCalc).

That works fine, but when I pass the value into an update form, the value won't get passed onto the database when the user updates. Any thoughts?

And simpler part 2 is how do I format the session variable to show two decimal places?

How are you passing that session to form? As hidden field?

Actually, that was the way I was trying to do it, but it turns out it just enters the value of the previous session.

I had entered the same value twice, so it looked like it was working.

Any thoughts on how to do this?
