Just do:

$amount = abs($_POST['amount']);

That would be one line of code done once

Years and years ago I was in the tele-marketing field, didn't like it much then, certainly don't today, but there were those who sat next to www.chase.com me who could talk a dog out of his biscuit, they were good. While of course does not mean they weren't shining up the penny a little more than was needed, not false hoods, but certainly pushing the high points and avoiding the negatives. What we try to do, or are beginning to do is enter into dialogs with people and lenders and find out what makes them tick. Are they all in it simply for the money, or are there some that put people first.

You know what, Sam? I have just received a spammy Twitter DM from someone I actually know personally… It seems to be more http://www.chase.com complex than I thought, but doesn't change the rule that we've been following with phishing e-mails (disguised as pieces of PayPal, Amazon, etc correspondence): if you are not sure — do *not* click it, but either log into your account and check what's going on, or e-mail the person that sent you the message to double-check with them.

An easy way to fix it is to use PHP’s abs() function to force the number to be positive

Hi Mattias,

Nice catch! I completely missed that that bug was there. I will post a fix shortly.

Hi, I just noticed something about your code. If the user is to enter a negative amount and deposit it, they would get more gold than they had in their hand and get a negative bank value.

Just thought I’d point it out.
