Client Side Validation

[jalbao]

In my html form i have a hidden field thet contains a float validation command;
<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;foo_float&quot; value=&quot;Please enter a valid number - Decimals are ok&quot;>

The validation works fine, but it does a little something extra that I'm not too fond of... after the user enters in a numeric value in the form fiels 'foo', a decimal along with 6 zero's are added to whatever the user entered....?

Why is this happening... what can i do to avoid this?

Hey Albao,

I don't think the CF validation routines add anything to the number but I'm not positive. If you remove the validation string, do the additional zero's disappear? Also, where are you seeing these additional zeros? Are they showing up when you display the form variable &quot;foo&quot; like <cfoutput>#foo#</cfoutput> or are you seeing them when you insert foo into a database?
