How print a float variable up to two decimal places in jsp?

jsp, variables

Solution

Add the following line of code on top of your jsp page.

<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt" %>

Then use the following line of code to show your digit

<fmt:formatNumber type="number" maxFractionDigits="2" value="${amount}"/>

Here `maxFractionDigits` attribute is used to define how many digits you want to show after the decimal point.
