Calculate total block

[Cassiie]

Hi folks   I'm hoping someone here can help me.  The (World of Warcraft) guild I am in uses a very simple DKP system for looting.   I would like to get my hands on a block that my users can input a whole number, have the code subtract 20% from that number, and display the result.

Should be pretty simple for my members to do for themselves but evidently some of them aren't familiar with simple math 

Thanks in advance.

Goes into a php block.

global $settings, $scripturl;

$number = '';
echo '<div style="text-align:center">';
if (isset($_POST['get_answer']))
{
  if ($_POST['number'] <> '')
    $number= $_POST['number'];
  echo '<br />Your number was ' , $number , '<br />';
  echo '<br />The answer is ';
  $answer = $number x .8;
  echo $answer;
  echo '</div><br /><hr /><br />';
}

  $str = getenv("QUERY_STRING");
  if ($str)
    $action = 'index.php?'.$str;
  else
    $action = 'index.php';
  echo '<div style="text-align:center">Enter your number';
  echo '<form  action="',$action,'" method="post">';
  echo '<input type="hidden" name="get_answer" value="1">';
  echo '<input type="text" name="number" value="">';
  echo '<input type="submit" value="Tell me!">';
  echo '</form></div>';

echo '</div>';

Holy Smokes that was fast!  Thank you!

It was easy. I have a block on my site that takes input and prints out an answer. It was just a matter of taking out a little code and adding a little bit back in.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home7/*******/public_html/******/home/Sources/Load.php(1739) : eval()'d code(48) : eval()'d code on line 11

If this is a pain, I'll just send them all calculators.  lol. I do appreciate your time

Oy vey!

I can't believe I did that! I knew better than that when I first learned programming 30 years ago!

Try this.

global $settings, $scripturl;

$number = '';
echo '<div style="text-align:center">';
if (isset($_POST['get_answer']))
{
  if ($_POST['number'] <> '')
    $number= $_POST['number'];
  echo '<br />Your number was ' , $number , '<br />';
  echo '<br />The answer is ';
  $answer = $number * .8;
  echo $answer;
  echo '</div><br /><hr /><br />';
}

  $str = getenv("QUERY_STRING");
  if ($str)
    $action = 'index.php?'.$str;
  else
    $action = 'index.php';
  echo '<div style="text-align:center">Enter your number';
  echo '<form  action="',$action,'" method="post">';
  echo '<input type="hidden" name="get_answer" value="1">';
  echo '<input type="text" name="number" value="">';
  echo '<input type="submit" value="Tell me!">';
  echo '</form></div>';

echo '</div>';
