jquery math with radio button and text field

I'm trying to build a calculator that does some simple math based on a number you input and a radio button you select.

I want to pre-populate th开发者_如何转开发e number and pre-select the radio button and show a sample outcome.

When I hard code the value of the text field it works until I try and change the new number then my output value flashes correctly and goes away. I know this is almost working but I can't seem to finish it off.

My thought is maybe I should be pre-populating the text field using jQuery but I'm not sure.

$(function() {
$(".calculate").change(function(){
var valone = $('#ms').val();
var valtwo = $('input:radio[name=ValTwo]:checked').val();

var total = ((valone * 1) * (valtwo * 1));
$('#Total').text(total);
});
}); 

<form>
        <dl>
            <dt><label for="spending">Monthly Spending</label></dt>
            <dd><input name="ValOne" id="ms" type="text" value="2500"></dd>
            <br /><br />
            <dt><label for="balance">Is your balance typically<br />above $5,000?</label></dt>
            <dd>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
                Yes <input name="ValTwo" type="radio" value=".02" class="calculate" checked='checked'>
                No  <input name="ValTwo" type="radio" value=".01" class="calculate">
            </dd>
        </dl>
        <div class="clear"></div>
        <input type="image" id="enter" value="open an account" src="images/btn-go.png">    
    </form>

<span  id="Total">50</span>

Changing your code to

function reCalc()
{
    var valone = $('#ms').val();
    var valtwo = $('input:radio[name=ValTwo]:checked').val();

    var total = ((valone * 1) * (valtwo * 1));
    $('#Total').text(total);
}

$('#ms').keyup(reCalc);
$('.calculate').change(reCalc);

will recalculate the total on each keypress in the spending field, and also on each change of the radio button.

Try to change

$('#Total').text(total);

to

$('#Total').html(total);
