How to add a trailing zero to a price with jQuery

You can use javascript's toFixed method (source), you don't need jQuery. Example:

var number = 258.2;    var rounded = number.toFixed(2); // rounded = 258.20

Edit: Electric Toolbox link has succumbed to linkrot and blocks the Wayback Machine so there is no working URL for the source.

Javascript has a function - toFixed - that should do what you want ... no JQuery needed.

var n = 258.2;n.toFixed (2);  // returns 258.20

I don't think jQuery itself has any string padding functions (which is what you're looking for). It's trivial to do, though:

function pad(value, width, padchar) {    while (value.length < width) {        value += padchar;    }    return value;}

Edit The above is great for strings, but for your specific numeric situation, rosscj2533's answer is the better way to go.
