Hi

It was something along those lines. 

My business objects tend to have convert methods where I take the strings of
the value object (which have been created in the Action from the form) and
turn them into their correct types. I have a NumberUtil class which I use
for converting locale specific strings into BigDecimal. This NumberUtil
class has a static method which takes a String and a Locale as parameters
and returns a BigDecimal.

huw,

how did you handle this input on the server side? did you have some
cunning scheme
or just a lot of
NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(request.getLocale()).parse(formBean.getFi
eld())?

thanks

simon
