Re: Show nulls on display file?

In XML you can't have a XML element with value null since all data is
strings - in other words
null becomes a string

In HTML you don't have an <input> type that handles null, you need to have
javascript that
handles an element that contains null as a 'null' character string or treat
it as an empty object.

So, yes, the user wants to distinguish between zero and blanks in the
field. I thought maybe a null value would work, but sounds like I
just
need to convert it to character. I also briefly considered a
secondary
field - a Y/N flag saying the commission had been entered.
