Subject: [PHP] Fw: Print float with varying format???

Hello,

I would like to display a float to a precision of 2 but not if the
trailing values are 0.

Ex:
     1.0000 should display '1'
     1.5000 should display '1.5'
     1.2500 should display '1.25'
     1.6667 should display '1.67'

 Is their any display functions that would allow this?
I know that I can display fixed precision of 2 but I don't want the trailing
numbers!

Thanks,
    Keith
