How to multiplication....

[invader7]

hello everybody, i have a problem and i think someone of you could solve it.

i have this line of code

$price2 =$row['price'] * $quantity;
echo $price2;

echo gives me : 200(price)3(quantity) like 2003 and not 600 as i want...

$row['price'] is from my database (varchar column, tried with int column)
and quantity is

$_SESSION["products"] as $product => $quantity

i tried these:

(int)$price2 =$row['price'] * $quantity;
echo $price2;

$price2 =(int)$row['price'] * (int)$quantity;
echo $price2;


(int)$price2 =(int)$row['price'] * (int)$quantity;
echo (int)$price2;

none worked for me... can anyone help me?

PHP will automatically converts object type. You don't need to do that yourself. In fact, the only way it should be concatenating is if you are using a "." instead of a "*".

I guess you could try the following...

$price2 = ($row['price']) * ($quantity);

[invader7]

$price2 =($row['price']) * ($quantity);
echo $price2;

and i get 700200 for example... i want 140000

Strange. PHP should always do variable type conversion. Try using intval().

Do your variables echo to what you expect?
