Thanks Andreas. Before mailing to this list, I tried looking at the ognl documentation and I found the NullHandler interface but I wasn't sure how it worked with Tapestry or if it was possible to do it another way without altering the BOs.
Correct me if I'm wrong but what I understand is that Tapestry already implements a Hivemind service that does the null handling. All I have to do is make my BOs implement NullHandler interface. Am I right? Thanks a lot! Marcos On 6/29/07, Andreas Andreou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
