Re: javascript - rounding to whole integer

I think there is a round command for JavaScript, unfortunately I'm moving 
at the end
of this month and have already packed up my JavaScript book but have taken 
a look
at the Netscape center for the info.
http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/js/client/jsref/index.htm

This is what it says:

Syntax
round(x)

Parameters
A number

Description
If the fractional portion of number is .5 or greater, the argument is 
rounded to the next higher integer. If the fractional portion of number is 
less than .5, the argument is rounded to the next lower integer.

Because round is a static method of Math, you always use it as 
Math.round(), rather than as a method of a Math object you created.

Examples
//Returns the value 20
x=Math.round(20.49)

//Returns the value 21
x=Math.round(20.5)

//Returns the value -20
x=Math.round(-20.5)

//Returns the value -21
x=Math.round(-20.51)
