wht u guessed is right. 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.
