As I mentioned, this is my first attempt at javascript, and I took the code from a sample. The reason if filled in the variables at the beginning was to serve as a sample set of values, which I wanted the user to adjust.

Your explanation went over my head, as I am so new to javascript. Could you fix the code I submitted so it works properly and allows people to enter a decimal point on field 2 and a straight percentage value (like 30)?

Your explanation makes sense, but modifying the code with your fixes is beyond me, it is so easy to make mistakes with this.

I would be extrememly grateful if you could show me the whole solution.
