Strange behavior when edit a decimal field with a number of decimal digits. If I delete 4 from for example 12,34 the field value becomes 1,23 . This is really weird. I tried both MySql datatypes (double and decimal). The same weird behavior.
Any reactions? Is not it critical for a data entering framework?
I found this page http://www.scriptcase.net/sistemas/v9/exemplos/new_data_entry/new_data_entry.php which shows the same behavior I describe. Go to Decimal number part/decimals required. enter a number (12.34) , delete 4 (with backspace), the number becomes 1.23 This is really WRONG. The result should be 12.3 or 12.30. Try it in Excel (which is the global standard for entering data). Can you guys fix dataentering as soon as possible?
Hi Guys, anyone is going to fix it? I will be much beter to leave out all the automatic masking you add on numerical fields. It is not acceptable to edit numbers this way.
While we’re on the subject … it also irritates me to have to type the zero before the decimal when the number is less than 1. Haven’t figured out how to get around that.
