Description: ------------ If I have two tables: person id car_id (may be null in database) car id name and a link in db_name.links.ini [person] car_id = car:id Inside a person form I get a select for car. As the database allows this field to be null. The select should also contain a null element. Is this possible?

The selectAddEmpty option does this: http://opensource.21st.de/tiki-index.php?page=Formbuilder+configuration+options#id754291 I understand your point, however.

I already use this option to work around the problem. But selectAddEmpty does not add a NULL to the row. In my case the field is an int and should contain NULL if no link is selected but FormBuilder sets the field to 0. Is this a bug?

I've added this to the CVS version, but I'm not sure it's correct to leave it on for everyone. Do other DBMS get DB_DATAOBJECT_NOTNULL on their columns? If not, this should be an option which is off by default. BTW, I also fixed the "bug" which doesn't set the column to NULL when using selectAddEmpty. I could remove the auto-empty option and you'd still get NULL in the column.

I have just installed the cvs version and can confirm it works in my test example. Many thanks for the fast fix.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net. In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show up on the website in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.
