JavaScript parseFloat

[SSG001]

x=0.4;
y=0.200;
z=parseFloat(x)+parseFloat(y);
alert(z);
//z value is shown as 2.400000002

but it works with 0.5+0.200 i gives correct answer

Thanks

Works fine for me. Are you sure you used .2 in the original code and not 2? I got the right answer when I used the code you posted.

sorry made a mistake while posting my question
instead of x,y variables if the input is taken from html input boxes like this where x value in input box is 0.4 and

x=parseFloat(eval(document.getElementById("qty_in"+i)).value);


y=parseFloat(eval(document.getElementById("qty"+i)).value);
z=parseFloat(x)+parseFloat(y);

In that case, we would need to see the HTML and what values were in the controls at the time the code was run.
