You should support commas, decimals, and dollar signs in the taxable income allowed. Keeping statistics for how many people using the tool would actually be affected might also be a useful exercise.
- johndavidback 15y agoAgreed. Though my income of 224,000 was a bit of a stretch :-)
- snikolic 15y agoThanks for the feedback! I'm updating the site right now to strip dollar signs out of the input. Commas and periods are a bit trickier, and something I hesitated about for a long time. Given that I was trying to get this done in just a few hours, I got lazy and decided to simply throw an alert message if someone uses punctuation. I'm about to update the alert message to make it a bit clearer, since this might be a more common issue than I anticipated. To keep development fast/simple, I decided against any backend recording of people's data. However, Google Analytics will probably be able to give some high-level statistics...I'll be sure to share the info if it's interesting!
- dkokelley 15y agoData about the inputs will be worthless. I went once saying that I did not make more than $200k last year, and then got curious and did it again, several more times with different numbers. I can't say everyone will be as curious as I was about the numbers, but I would imagine that several people will want to see what someone who made $1,000,000 would have to pay extra in taxes.
- snikolic 15y agoYou're totally right.
