Lauri,

Even Ron's sample demonstrates a basic flaw. What if the user fills in BOTH
metric and imperial for a given dimension. How do you know which one was
intended?

I'm inclined to suggest using a radio select for type (meters or feet), then
inputs for the appropriate measurements... using Ron's calculator functions.
Of course they couldn't mix units once the radio was selected!

Tell us more about what you're doing!
