Can anyone tell me if theres a way to process a text value in a dropdown as a number so that a caculation can be performed?
Use case: I want to create a annual budget calculator which allows the users to input an expense then select either day, week, month or year from a dropdown which will populate a text box with the sum of the calculation e.g. the cost of fuel is $50 per week which means the user will enter $50 and select week from the dropdown. The calculation 50 × 52 weeks = $2600 will be run in the background.
