Tax Calculator

The following form calculates the tax for non-Australian residents (thats most of you). Simply type in your income and calculate the result.

COMMENTS:
Some of the things that this code does is

Format output such as calculating the percentage and adding the % sign.
Truncating numbers to a certain number of decimal places, such as 2 for the dollar amounts and 1 for the percentage.
Off course it also reads and writes data from the form. One thing I came accross was that you could only access a text input on a form if the name is in lower case, well at least the first character. To me a while to figure that one out.

If you want this script just choose "Save Frame As..." (in Netscape) when you have the focus on the frame.
