Right, but my fear was that perhaps that variable contained more than just the value I wanted.

I'm at a total loss, I've researched every avenue I can think of, and still nothing.

Why would the attempt to convert it to an int or float return 0?

Is there a function that I'm overlooking?

thank you chrishirst, for you continued input by the way.

I should also note that banging my head against the desk has not yielded any additional incite into this.

is there some avenue I have missed? should I scrap this idea and try something different? Should I drink myself into a drunken stupor and pray to the php gods?

If it "prints" the correct value to screen on echo($total), it's fine.

To find the right section of code search for this string >> uc-price"=""

yes, it echos the correct value, but when plugged into the form, it decides to be something else.

I found this in the theme file, It looks like it could possibly be the culprit of the issue, though I'm at a loss as to what to do about it...

PHP Code:


			
function theme_uc_price($variables) {
  $output = '<span class="uc-price">' . uc_currency_format($variables['price']) . '</span>';
  if (!empty($variables['suffixes'])) {
    $output .= '<span class="price-suffixes">' . implode(' ', $variables['suffixes']) . '</span>';
  }
  return $output;
}

Problem solved!
a rather simple fix it turns out.

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="<?php echo strip_tags($total); ?>">

Makes sense. I knew there was something I Was overlooking

Thanks for the help chrishirst!
