parseFloat problems in Internet Explorer

Giovanbattista Barra

Hallo Team,

I have this piece of code from JQuery:

GetTripCosts: function () {

var km = $("#input_km").val();

var entire_Km = (km * 0.30).toFixed(2);

if (!isNaN(parseFloat(entire_Km))) {

$("#input_entire").val(entire_Km.replace(".", ","));

}

in Chrome: I put for example 55,88 in the input feld and I get result 55,88 * 0,30 = 16,76

in Internet Explorer the same calculation I get as result 16,50 rather then 16,76 like in Chrome.

If i put the number 55.88 with point comma rather then 55,88 then I get also in Internet Explorer the right result 16,76.

My question is: does it depend on the parseFloat?

Because I'm not sure that the problem regards the replace method.

I would appreciate some help and suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Well if you need comma then at the end of the result you can replace it. But initially if you give comma then it is showing error. So first you give the value with Dot and calculate it and at the end you replace with comma. Hope that clears. Thanks

Thanks a lot Salman.
Well, I need "unfortunately" the comma because this is a requirement project.

Many thanks

Hi.
I have try your same code in both Chrome as well as IE but i got the same result as 16.76.
In Chrome:-
In IE:-

In the Input why you are passing comma. I don't think so comma is required. Because as you are doing some calculation with km so you can simply use 55.88 value.

Thanks.
