Numeric String

[Pipeline-Webdesign]

the following code works for text:

[code:1:e5fd43ced3]$years = stripslashes($_POST['empyears']);[/code:1:e5fd43ced3]

but i need it to work for a numeric value that might have a decimal included... anyone know?

[Pipeline-Webdesign]

Jazee I know you know this! ;-)

What do you want it to do if there is a decimal? Round the number?

[code:1:5f708c62c2]$years = round($_POST['empyears']);[/code:1:5f708c62c2]

i've decided to do away with the $years b/c it's really not neccessary but i'm still getting an error... any ideas

http://www.uniqueemployment.com/beta/bioform.php is the page that triggers the script

http://www.uniqueemployment.com/beta/bioform-submit.txt is the code for the script...

test the script and you'll get this error [code:1:406dee2c58]Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /web/guide/uniqueemployment/wwwfp/beta/bioform-submit.php on line 7[/code:1:406dee2c58]

$subject = "Bio Submission from <$name>;

to

$subject = "Bio Submission from $from";

When someone wants a whole script written, I save it for you.
