>Same results for v5year = 1.25 and 125.

>For 125 JavaScript gives 1.2360679774997898, VBScript gives 1.23606797749979.
>
>(NB for 1.25, the displayed result appeared different because VBScript 
>displayed it in exponential form - i.e. with E-02 - whereas JScript did not.)

>Environment Win 2000 server IIS and IE6 JavaScript.
