Question

Is there a Java web framework that allows
the user to create custom fields, like in Mantis bugtracker?

http://www.mantisbt.org/wiki/doku.php/mantisbt:features

Here’s what I actually want to do:

Allow the user to create a template / form that has several custom fields
(textboxes, checkboxes, comboboxes, etc.)

Once a template has been created (of which several others can also be made),
he can use the template, and save data inputted into the fields.

I am planning to use Spring and Hibernate along with this,
though other suggestions are also appreciated.

Like comments suggests, it is not a framework duty to provide you that kind of fields, it is your duty, as an application developper, and depending upon your requirements, to provide such a feature.
