Is there any way I can automatically round a number to the nearest hundredth instead of the nearest integer?

Yeah, var num = 5.345; var n = num.toFixed(2); n is now 5.35

var test = 512 var r100 = 100*Math.round(test/100);

Note that you have to convert it back to a number with my solution with -edit, not parseInt() of course, but a function that converts a string to float.

With parseFloat(), else you will lose the decimal part ;) The main problem is that you cannot conserve a decimal value with a fixed digit number after the dot because of floating point unaccuracy... The workaround is mathematical: storing the value * 100 ( or any 10^n ), and using it with dividing it by same ten power. Anyway, almost of the time, you need to format with a fixed digit number for text output :P
