I have:

onclick="document.getElementById('field1').value = 
Math.round((parseFloat(document.getElementById('field2').value,2)*100))/100 + 
Math.round((parseFloat(document.getElementById('field3').value,2)*100))/100;"

Most numbers round ok to 2 decimal points which is what I need.

However, with an example like 

onclick="document.getElementById('field1').value = 
Math.round((parseFloat(document.getElementById('21.29').value,2)*100))/100 + 
Math.round((parseFloat(document.getElementById('54.70').value,2)*100))/100;"

Field 1 is returning 75.99000000000001 How can I trim to 75.99 consistently?

I had a similar issue - where I do not wanted to round the value but trim upto 2 decimals

I got the perfect solution for by writing this function and using where ever needed to trim upto 2 decimals

function upto2Decimal(num) {
    if (num > 0)
      return Math.floor(num * 100) / 100;
    else
      return Math.ceil(num * 100) / 100;
  }

if you call

upto2Decimal(2.3699) or upto2Decimal(-2.3699)
// returns 2.36 or -2.36

check this solution using your JS console of the browser

You can use :

function myFunction() 
{
      var num = "-54.987656";
    var roundedValue = roundMethod(num,5);   
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = roundedValue;
}
function roundMethod(numberVal, roundLimit) // This method will not add any additional 0, if decimal places are less than the round limit
{
    var isDecimal = numberVal.indexOf(".") != -1;    
  if(isDecimal)
  {
      if(numberVal.split(".")[1].length > roundLimit)
      {
        return parseFloat(numberVal).toFixed(roundLimit).toString();    
      }else
      {
          return numberVal;
      }
  }else
  {
      return numberVal;
  } 
}
