For *null*? A text box in the browser will never* send back a null to the server, AFAIK. IIRC in Java converting an empty string into a numeric type will result in a 0 appropriate for that data type, not a null. So AFAIK, no, although there are significantly smarter people than I on the list that may have the answer to your problem. d. * Unless you manipulate the form/submission so the value isn't sent back, of course. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
