I have a bug probably due to numeric conventions across countries; it happens with a specific script but I guess it's generic
I uses "mymovies.it script” to grab info such as the movie rating. This is a number which is a single float from 0 to 5 with 2 digit decimals. Such rating is acquired directly from the website. However, the number is truncated to the integer digit, say in stead of a "3,65" rating, it becames just "3" after the script grabs it and send to the DB the single float.
It might be due to the fact that an Italian language website uses "," as a decimal separator and not “.” So the Ex Mv Mgr function called from the script to translate the “rating string” acquired in the HTML to single float DB field is confused by having a "," as a decimal separator unlike english. Hence it probably stops there the conversion.
Is this a known issue ? Any solution ? On a 5 point ratings, decimal are important !! Steve
