Hi, You can use the value= attribute in the tag in which you don't want the default values to be loaded. This doe not require any special method.

I will try to use the wrapper class Thanks OK. You might also want to consider using String rather than a number type like Float. The reason is, you can then redisplay invalid data for the user to correct. For example, if the user types in 'xyz' validation should fail. If you have the form property type as Float, you now can't redisplay that input (because a Float object can't represent the entered value, 'xyz'). With a String, the form will redisplay with the incorrect value along with your validation error message, so the user can see what he entered wrong.

Re: [Form field values.. regarding]
Yes, that will work; but if you do that, the field will always be displayed empty (or with whatever value you specify). Again, that reduces the amount of feedback to the user when redisplaying the form following validation failure. Using 'value' works well when you always want to force the input to a particular value, regardless of what is loaded into the form from your database or following a form submit and redisplay. That's usually not what you want though :-) L. Deva Pitchai(NatureSoft) wrote: you mean to say that in struts tag we can have value='' attribute?

Re: [Form field values.. regarding]
i feel this is not required since this is handled by the struts and the form bean.
