In Rails if the form field is empty it will submit an empty params value.. Thats how it works by default.
Maybe an example would be better? If you had two inputs, i1 and i2 and i1 had the word here and i2 was empty when you press submit you get this back to you controller: i1="here" i2="" and if there is no validation rules in the model that would be saved with the blank field.. Sounds like you are thinking Java and not Rails...
