Do you really want 100 decimal places? Or do you mean 2 decimals? The code you have posted should work for 2 decimals. What happens when you run the script?<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
<br />
I have a variable, $item_price, whose value is 55.0000<br />
<br />
I want to shorten the number to the 100th place. I was trying to do the following but do not get output when I echo $item_price2. I wonder if I need to convert this value from a string to a number?? Thoughts?<br />
<br />
<br />
$item_price2 = number_format($item_price,<wbr /> 2, '.', '');
