function of a table does not work in grid

[Giorgos Tsolakis]

Hi all,

I have a function in the table "pail" that puts a leading zero to a one-digit number when I save a new entry.

<?php
class tables_pail {
    function beforeSave($record){
        $paildg = sprintf('%02d', $record->_values['paildigits']);
        $record->setValue('paildigits', $paildg);
    }
}
?>

This function works fine in the table "pail," but when I call this table as a widget grid inside table "locus", it doesn't work there. Among other things, I have tried copying the same code to "locus.php", but with no result. Can you please tell me what I am missing? 

Thank you!

Yeah, this is a bit of a leak in the abstraction because adding related records doesn't actually go through the beforeSave hook.  You'll need to use the beforeAddRelatedRecord hook in the table that defines the relationship.

E.g.

function beforeAddRelatedRecord(Dataface_RelatedRecord $record) {

    if ($record->getRelationship()->getDomainTable() == 'pail') {

        $paildg = sprintf('%02d', $record->getValue('paildigits'));
