I’m trying to calculate loan payments using actionscript.

i’d like to have my variable’s value like this:

843.34

instead of:

843.3454 (how it’s displaying now)

since I’m ultimately going to display $dollar amounts.

I know how to use Math.round() but I’d like to go to two decimal places!

anybody done this before?
