Summing up fields
Does anyone know why this script does not work???
thisitem = eval(price1.getText())+(price2.getText());
itemtot1.setText(thisitem);
When I use ut, it adds the numbers together instead of giving me a sum of them.
Thanks.

Isn't adding and summing the same thing?

This is a common mistake, you are concatenating the strings. The change you need is this:
thisitem = parseInt(price1.getText())+parseInt(price2.getText());
itemtot1.setText(thisitem);
It first changes the string values into integer values and THEN sums them together.
