Matt,
Thank you, I will try it right away! And I multiply the numbers right
away because before coming to jQuery and using plain old JS, I learned
that when dealing with numbers the best way to do it wasw multiply
everything by one, this forces JS to treat the numbers as numbers. For
example if I had 41 + 1, it set the new variable to 411, but if I use
* 1 it sets the new variable to 42.
