How to force addition for javascript instead of concatenation

I'm trying to add all of the calorie contents in my javascript like this:


total = parseFloat(myInt1 + myInt2 + myInt3);
$('#response').append(total);


Instead of adding the variables they get concatenated. I've tried using parseInt, parseFloat, and Number but I still just get concatenation and not addition. Please look at the view source at http://maureenmoore.com/momp_112412/121912_800.html

 

try parseFloat(myInt1)+parseFloat(myInt2)+parseFloat(myInt3)

 

Thanks I added your code to maureenmoore.com/momp_112412/121912_800.html but it didn't improve the situation.

 

The problem was solved by axrwkr at stackoverflow:

The problem was actually in the code you didn't show us.
