Get value of decimal field w/ client script

[JJG]

Hello,

I have a decimal field on a form. I have a client-side UI action that needs to display the decimal field value on a confirmation pop up. So far I am not getting the expected result. What am I missing?

var number =  parseFloat(g_form.getValue('hours_worked_today')); //This is the decimal field

var answer = confirm('Please Confirm That You Want to Submit ' + number + ' Hours For ' + g_form.getValue('date'));
     if (answer == true) {
     gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), "hourInput");
}

RESULT

getDecimalValue(String fieldName)

var number = parseFloat(g_form.getDecimalValue('hours_worked_today')); //This is the decimal fiel
