Too Dumb (Simple Question Here)
Okay, I don't know ANYTHING!

I can stumble my way through setting CONFIG files on scripts
but I really don't know what I'm doing. So here is my dumb
newbie question.

I have a shopping cart program with a variable

Code:
$FinalAmount


earlier in the script it has this line:

Code:
my ($FinalAmount) = CommifyMoney ($frm{'Final_Amount'});



So, which of these snippets of code is right?

Code:
<!-- Google Conversion Code -->
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
google_conversion_id = 5555555555;
google_conversion_language = "en_US";
if ($FinalAmount) {
google_conversion_value = $FinalAmount;
}
google_conversion_label = "Purchase";
-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<a href="http://services.google.com/sitestats/en_US.html" target=_blank>
<img src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/5555555555/?value=$FinalAmount&label=Purchase&hl=en">
</a>
</noscript>







----- or -----



Code:


<!-- Google Conversion Code -->
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
google_conversion_id = 5555555555;
google_conversion_language = "en_US";
if (Final_Amount) {
google_conversion_value = Final_Amount;
}
google_conversion_label = "Purchase";
-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<a href="http://services.google.com/sitestats/en_US.html" target=_blank>
<img src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/5555555555/?value=Final_Amount&label=Purchase&hl=en">
</a>
</noscript>







The shopping cart script has a template that uses this:

Code:
<!--MOF V1.5 INPUT AREA-->


to call the specific script info from the CGI-Bin.



I am too dumb to even know if I have asked the question
right. If you need more info I'll be glad to try to figure
out what you ask for.


Thanks for saving me (again!!!)

Basically my question is:

Should I use:

Code:
$FinalAmount


Or



Code:
Final_Amount




...if I want to pass the variable to another script from a page that is dynamically generated.

This is javascript code not perl and the first snip of code is correct.
$frm{'Final_Amount'} refers to a hash value.
