How to align numbers in html-tables where some number have no decimal point?-CodePudding

I would like to align numbers in a table. Usually it can be done with

<td aligh="char" char=".">

But some of my numbers do not have a decimal point (I would like do show 8 instead of 8.0000). These numbers will not be aligned correctly. Is there any possibility to do this without extensive use of javascript etc.?

CodePudding user response：

You wrote aligh not align, which could be why it's not working. We can't help without all of the affecting code.

I don't know if you do not want to use JS at all but it would be easily fixed by casting like:

Number(5.17)  => 5.17
Number(5.00)  => 5
Number(5.50) => 5.5

even with strings:

Number('5.17')  => 5.17

or you can parse:

parseFloat('17.00') => 17
parseInt('17.07')   => 17 (removes .07)
parseFloat('17.07')   => 17.07

You can also fix the number of decimals if it can help, using this:

Number((5.5644).toFixed(2)) => 5.56
