Need help returning value as decimal

Trying to modify this code slightly to allow the returned value to be in decimal format.

$min=number_format(mysql_result($result,$i,"minutes"));

In this instance, the value in the database is 40.5, but is returning as 41. What do I need to add to that line of code to get it to display correctly as 40.5?

Stop formatting it with the number_format function?

Tried that...changed it to $min=(mysql_result($result,$i,"minutes")); and still nothing.

Nevermind...I'm a dolt. LOL

Thanks!

That should be:


$min=mysql_result($result,$i,"minutes");


If it's 40.5 in the DB, and changing that line makes no difference, then the number is being rounded somewhere else.


Edit: Just seen your other post. Pipped whilst composing the post. :D
