Simpla add variables question

1

Okies, i am doing something very stupid 8] , i have 2 input variable fields.
When i press the button to add them, it won’t add together, instead it places the variables from both fields next to each other.
Finalcost is the field which shows the total amount. totalcost & totalcost2 are the input fields.
here is the code,

on(release){
_root.mailer.finalcost = ("$") + Number(_root.totalcost+_root.totalcost2);
}

any ideas??? :nerd:

2 
on(release){
cost = _root.totalcost + _root.totalcost2;
_root.mailer.finalcost = "$" + cost;
}

that should work, I think…

try


on(release){
        cost = Number(_root.totalcost) + Number(_root.totalcost2);
        _root.mailer.finalcost = "$" + cost;
}

that might work…
