Why does eZPrice drop .00?

Whenever we add a price that ends in .00 to an entry the sytem drops the .00; so 25.00 becomes 25. Why?

Is there a way to change this practice?

Is your price using the price datatype? the ezprice datatype stores the value as a float. I've just had a look at prices we use and it displays the .00 as expected.

Your title suggests you are using that datatype. Have a look at the standard way of viewing a price datatype, in:

design/standard/templates/content/datatype/view/ezprice.tpl

You may need to use one of the sub-fields for vat that the price datatype sets for you.

Hrrrm, thanks for the info Paul. I have edited the Price datatype a bit, but hadn't thought of using the VAT fields...
