how to store pricing (anyone have any helpers for price data?)

Actually I was rather unfamiliar with the float column type in databases. I assumed it was similar to a PHP float. The clarification is appreciated.

I never did say that a float is the best resource to use, though. I said it works fine for me. And suggested that people always sanitize their numbers relating to money BEFORE entering them into a database, and not using it to round off numbers and such.

And I did not create the DB structure at my place of employment, and am not in a position to overhaul it to fix its stupidity. Which is a shame.
