Description:
------------
This is not directly a dedicated bug - but i will report the behaviour anyway.

The ROUND produce no decimals when whole numbers...

Syntax: ROUND(float, decimals)

so...

ROUND(1.345, 2) = "1.35" (OK)

but...

ROUND(1.000, 2) = "1" (we must to add ".00" to get "1.00")

This is somewhat annoying if You want to produce a list
with the same number of decimals - You must after a ROUND test on the output and eventually add a "." and "0" 's.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

round() returns a float value, use nnumber_fomat or 
[s]printf to format it...

Use sprintf(".%2f", 1.000) instead...
