JavaScript - Getting The Actual Percentage Value, Not Pixels For Rule

I am having an issue with converting my decimal to a percentage... any suggestions? Thanks - it's probably an easy solution, but I am lost


below is my code (cost * .06) is where the issue is - Thanks!





var cost = prompt("What is the cost of your purchase?", "")
document.write("Return Value: "+cost,("<br />"));
var salestax = cost * .06
document.write("Return Value: "+salestax,("<br />"));
var total = cost + salestax
document.write(cost + salestax);

Hi,

I am fairly new to this so please bare with me.

I have a php page that uses Javascript (I think) to calculate the percentage Insurance Premium Tax (IPT field) of a total.

I have located where the calculation occurs and can see that it take the total of a predefined amount and divides it by 21 to give me the 5% IPT tax. IPT has risen in the UK today to 6% so I need to know what I need to change the 21 to to give me an accurate IPT calculation.

Here's a snippet of the code. Can anyone help please? Is it 17.65?

PHP Code:
////////////////////////////////////////////
// Motor Bike Calculations
////////////////////////////////////////////
$p = 3;
$q = 0;
  while ($p < 6){
  $base_array = mysql_fetch_row($result4);
  // Motor Bikes
  $risk_code = 2;
  $ap = (0 + ($p));

          $ipt_rate = $ipt_main;

  $monthly_total = $pricing_row[$ap];
  // Calculate IPT
  $ipt_percentage = $monthly_total / 21;
  $monthly_ipt = $ipt_percentage;

    $base_cost = $base_array[0] + $dealer_loading;
  $base_final = $base_cost;
  
  $profit = $monthly_total - $base_cost - $monthly_ipt;
  
        $monthly_total = number_format($monthly_total, 2, '.', '');
            $monthly_ipt = number_format($monthly_ipt, 2, '.', '');
                $base_final = number_format($base_final, 2, '.', '');
                    $profit = number_format($profit, 2, '.', '');
                    
  echo '
  <tr align="center" bgcolor="#FFDDFF"> 
    <td>';
if ($p == 3)
{
echo ('');
}
elseif ($p == 4)
{
echo ('UK');
}
elseif ($p == 5)
{
echo ('UK & European');
}
echo '</td>
    <td>
        <input name="';
if ($p == 3)
{
echo ('comprehensive_plus_'.$risk_code);
}
elseif ($p == 4)
{
echo ('comprehensive_'.$risk_code);
}
elseif ($p == 5)
{
echo ('driveline_plus_'.$risk_code);
}


echo '" type="text" value="'.$pricing_row[$ap].'" size="6" maxlength="6" class="smallinfo">
     </td>
    <td>'.$monthly_ipt.'</td>
    <td>'.$base_final.'</td>
    <td>'.$profit.'</td>
  </tr>';
  $q++;
$p++;
} 

I am trying to create a function or have this work some how where it displays the first number when you make your choice in the first drop down box, which is working so far. In the second drop down box, if any of the answers are chosen except for none, it will take off 10% of the first number. Then add or subtract from there. I just have a problem with creating a function to take off that 10%. Here is the javascript:

I have my cumulative totals box at the very end of my order form and I'm required to have another underneath that one that will give a particular discount depending on how great the total of the order is.

Would someone please be able to give me the javascript codes that will allow me to do this and also tell me where I'm to put them.

Hi. Can someone please tell me if a bent percentage silder is possible (something like this http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=173255 only I want it to be bent about 330 degrees, and I wouldn't want to link to another class-I would like to host the entire code on my website)? Also, the reason I want the slider to be bent, is because I would like the slider to be a sort of bent rectangle, and when the user clicks/drags the slider, the rectangle would "fill" to that point (change its background color up to where the mouse is). Thank you. Bye.

How can i "prompt the user for the sales tax rate as a percentage"?
Thanks soooo much for any help!

this is what i have so far....

var tax = prompt("What is your tax rate percentage?", "")
document.write("Return Value: "+tax,("<br />"));

Hi. Sort of new to Javascript.

I am implementing a zoom in feature, but actually tricking the user as a full screen image is simply being stretched.

I plan to apply it to several pages, and don't really fancy working out the pixels for each.

I believe that if you simply put width: 150% height 150% it will change the image size relative to the browser. I don't want that, I want it relative to the original image size. Could I do sort of height*1.5 or something? How would I write that if so? Thanks!

Code:

<script>

$('#in').click(function() {
  $('#drag img').animate({
    width: '150%',
	height: '150%',
  }, 5000, function() {
    // Animation complete.
  });
}); 
</script>

I am having issues with my code... below are the instructions.

"prompt the user for the cost of a purchase and the sales tax rate as a percentage. Calculate the tax amount and the total cost. Display all 4 values in the document"

I am having some real issues with the tax rate percentage, it keeps showing as a decimal, and does not calculate correctly. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks so much!




var cost = prompt("What is the cost of your purchase?", "")
document.write("Return Value: "+cost,("<br />"));

var tax = prompt("What is your tax rate percentage?", "")
document.write("Return Value: "+tax,("<br />"));

var salestax= cost * tax
document.write("Return Value: "+salestax,("<br />"));

var total = eval(cost) + salestax
document.write(total, ("<br />"));

I need to replace the captions with simple text for download speed purposes. This is controlled by a piece of Javascript written for me.
