This definitely helps, thank you for your work.

>Hi Christian.

>Here's some code I just whipped up. You just need to pass it the decimal value and an optional accuracy and it will return a string containing a fraction that, when converted back to a decimal value, will be within the accuracy limit of the original value. If you don't pass an accuracy then it defaults to .0001 ( one in ten thousand). This code only handles the fractional part of the decimal, though it's easy enough to modify to handle the whole number if you want to. I didn't bother since your examples were only fractional parts and I dn't know how you'd want to display it. For Example, is 1.5 to be 1+1/2 or is it 3/2. If you need it to handle the non fractional part of the number too and can't work it out, let me know how you want it displayed and I'll be happy to change it.
