Hi Monks, I'm new to Perl/Tk but already ran into a strange problem. I made a program (source included) that accepts numbers with the entry widget. As long as i use integers, the program acts as expected, but when i use decimals, it gets weird. When the program is not stopped, and another calculation is made (with a decimal under 1 ie. 0.05) the calculation is performed correct, but re-running the program w/o a change, any change to the field with the decimal, results in an error message at the console. When the decimal is above 1 (ie. 1.5) the error message will not appear, but the calculated value changes. So i wonder if somehow, "entry" has a problem with retaining the value of decimals.

Error message:

Tk::Error: Illegal division by zero at C:\perl\dwnspd.pl line 79.
