Thanks for your response!
Sorry, I am not able to change my PHP version, so I can't try the CVS
snapshot.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Description:
------------
For certain values, not necessarily large numbers, round() returns the
value in exponential notation instead of the usual decimal format. Some
of these "special" values are 1200000, 1400000, 2300000, 2400000.
It seems to be just certain multiples of 100,000. Generate your own
list with the code below. I suggest you start with input of:
Start = 1000000
Increment = 100000
Iterations = 100 to 200
Reproduce code:
---------------
<html><head><title></title></head><body>
<form method="post" action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>">
<!-- some recommended values for next fields: 1000000, 100000, 200 -->
Start value:<input type="text" name="start">
Increment: <input type="text" name="increment">
Iterations: <input type="text" name="iterations">
<input type="submit">
</form>
<?
if(count($_POST)) {
echo "<p>Start: ", $_POST['start'], "; Increment: ",
$_POST['increment'], "</p>";
$tmp = $_POST['start'];
echo round($tmp),"<br>";
for($i = 0; $i < $_POST['iterations']; $i++ ) {
$tmp += $_POST['increment'];
echo round($tmp),"<br>";
}
}
?>
</body></html>
Expected result:
----------------
All values to be returned in standard decimal format, e.g., "1200000".
Actual result:
--------------
Certain values are returned in exponential format, e.g., "1.2E+6".
