Multiplying In Php

I have a project which relies on a php form multiplying 2 large numbers but Im having a problem with the output:

&#036;numbertotal=&#036;number1*&#036;number2;

&#036;shouldbe=1219326311779068734574924;

print(&#036;numbertotal . "
" . &#036;shouldbe);

if (&#036;numbertotal==&#036;shouldbe) {
&nbsp; &nbsp; print("
YES");
} else {
&nbsp; &nbsp; print("
NO");
};

?>

now the output i get is &#036;numbertotal=1.21932 E 24 and NO.

anyone know how i get rid of the exponential description and get it expressed as a simple integer?

<?php
$numone=123456789012;
$numtwo = 9876543214327;
echo bcmul($numtwo, $numone) . "\n";
?>
