my quick suggestion would be to make sure your values really are what you
think they are... echo out to the screen
also, note that "floatval" is a function whereas "float" will evaluate a
string numerically.
so...
<?php
$withdraw_request = (float)$_REQUEST['withdraw_amount'];
$withdraw_maximum = (float)$user['available_balance'];
echo "comparing $withdraw_request and $withdraw_maximum <br>";
if($withdraw_request > $withdraw_maximum) {
echo "Insufficient funds.";
} else {
echo "Processing...";
}
?>
