<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thomas,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Actually -- in IE 5 anyway -- it
seems that the *last* number doesn't get added. Good choice on the
pre-filled zeroes, by the way...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Try replacing the (sometimes
temperamental) onKeyPress event handler with an onChange or onBlur (this
will trip when the focus passes to anything else).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Cheers,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Peter (still just learning like everybody
else)</FONT></DIV>

I enter a number into first is never added to the total... unless I go
