Display table with decimal values like 0.2 problem

[vijay jamadade]

Hi Friends,

I have a display table. In that i am printing the decimal values like 0.2, 0.3 etc. But the values get printed like .2,.3 only not 0.2,0.3.

that means the 0 is not getting displayed before the decimal point.
Tell me what to do if i want to display the zero also.

Thanks in advance.

How you print those values , in your JSP, Post that code.

If you populated this values in bean, then at action class format them using DecimalFormat class and then store into bean.

HTH

Thanks for your reply sagar,
The problem is in my action class also the value is coming as '.2'
and I want it as '0.2' where should i handle it. in query or in
action class. the class you were talking about is formatting of numbers.
I am not getting. Can you send me some sample line code how can
i achieve this?

Can you post the code, showing How you displaying them in JSP page with Action class, from where they are originating ??

[vijay jamadade]

Actually the values are originating in the result of the select query.
that means in resultset the '.2' like values are there. So I think i should
handle it in query itself. Do you have any idea how it can be handled in query

What is the data type of column which stores values like, .2 , .3 etc..

If its varchar, then parse the string and store into double, then there is no requirement of formatting it.

Ya exactly that was the problem. Thanks.
I was storing the values in string thats why it was taking so.
now i am using float and its working fine. silly mistake.
Thanks once again.
