Hi there

I have a table with char and int fields. From my form  I get no values back
for int fields when they are left blank. This causes the SQL insert to
fail.

field     type
name char
id   int2
city char

insert into table (name,id,city) values ('roger rabbit',,'carrot city')

The default for int/float fields is 0. Since I reuse the code of the
referring page I don't like to have all fields assigned 0 at the beginning.

Who can help ???

Thanks ... jr
