OK I've got what I know will turn out to be something small that I'm 
overlooking but it's driving me nuts.

I've recently been learning Javascript so I thought I'd make a nice 
*simple* order form for the calendars I do for one of my mailing 
lists.  It's basic: http://www.hooloovoo.com/todd/calendar2.html

And of course I thought everything was working and I tested it with 
random number.  Well today I went and put in the correct shipping 
info and there's where I hit the first problem.  For some reason only 
when ordering 1 calendar and entering the shipping of 4.35 it gives 
me a run-on decimal.    

The script is supposed to just take the calendar price ($24.88) 
multiply it by the number of calendars ordered and then add 
shipping.  Since calendars are only ordered in round numbers and 
shipping is only 2 decimals, there should never be more than 2 
decimal places and I'm stumped as to why it's giving me a 
$29.2299 instead of $29.23.  

Can someone please solve this mystery?
