Hi, Since 0 would be the default value for primitive int, you cant do any thing over there. But if you are using Integer object then youc an get null. In the formBean you would have instantiated the fields globally. Check that. Ex : String s = ""; or String s = new String("") ;
If so then you got to change it to String s = null; Then you would get it as null. Hope this helps you.

After submitting empty fields (user entered nothing in input field) are set by default with specific values depending on their data typ. So an empty Integer field is set to 0, an String field to "" an so on. But i want to have a null value for empty fields. Or in other words: How can i decide if for example the 0 is entered by user or the default initialization. Can anybody help ....
