Hello

Here an example in DTML:
When you loop over the fields of the formulator, you must asure that you
call the fields with the default values.
<dtml-var "field.render(REQUEST.form[field.getId()],REQUEST)">
This example is ok, when you come from an other DTML-Method/Document, where
you show the values of the record. There you have to have something like
this:
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="sex_code:int" VALUE="<dtml-var sex_code
null="">">
Important is the ":int". If you're not using it, you'll never get the
default value.
