you can use something like the following on page footer
<script type="text/javascript">
function ZeroFill()
{
    document.getElementById("myconst_1").value = 0;
    document.getElementById("myconst_2").value = 0;
}
window.addEvent('domready', ZeroFill);
</script>


the myconst_xx depends on your question name

Bahadir, I have placed the code as you said and it throws the following erorr. Sorry, I didn't mention the version I am using. It is version 8.0.2

Error: Object doesn't support property or method 'addEvent'

instead of 
window.addEvent('domready', ZeroFill);

try 
<body onload="ZeroFill()">

in your FOOTER, not in JS snippet.
