How can I handle numbers bigger than 17-digits in Firefox/IE7?

Question

For a web application I want to be able to handle numbers up to 64 bits in size. During testing, I found that javascript (or the browser as a whole) seems to handle as much

Answer 1

You could try to split them into two or more numbers (in a class maybe), but you'll might need some arithmetic helper functions to work with them.
